Can I dip a pink stylophora in peroxide?

SPS hate peroxide in my experience. If the gha is on the plug... just cut it off the plug. Or cut off the dead part of the skeleton it is on.

Depends - I dipped a bubble gum digi, some blue digis, a green poci, and some green slimers few weeks ago. Didn't kill them but the GHA died.
You may just be able to manually remove with fingers and tweezers then.

I was thinking that too. Since I have no GHA in my tank currently, whatever strands I might miss shouldn’t take root. I mean, if conditions were optimal for GHA in my tank, I’d already have it right?
Hard to say, but if you have any herbivores, they would probably demolish any that was missed.
just remove it and I wouldn’t worry about it. GHA. I have never seen GHA grow on SPS that didn’t have a dead spot so idk. Might be missing tissue under it.
you'd do surgery like its a bad tooth and you had gums to avoid
set coral on counter use scalpel to debride the attached algae it will only be on bare skeletal patches anyway so be precise but rasp it all off leaving the bare spot and rinse away with warmed saltwater. work it like a tooth model in dentistry school for plaque busters
use perox on a q tip only, on that bare spot you made surgically, for cellular burn help and be prepared to repeat
set in lower light area and well fed, strong throughput low storage tank. in a mason jar we'd have it adhered to the sides unremovable by July.
do all this so you don't put peroxide on the good parts, my dentist doesn't rasp my gums just the same. well he does a little
