I have resisted posting this because I really feel silly, but I really don't know what to do. When I first started my current tank,I was not proficient with keeping coral alive, nonetheless growing. Well, fast forward almost two years to now and I'm primarily(like 98 percent) sps. The tank is and overall has been doing great, but note I'm faced with a massive problem.
When I set it up,I bought a few pieces of anthelia and had a GBTA I got from a friend. Well now, they are all over the place. I've removed the rock and tried to slowly peel the anthelia off and have tried kalk pasting the aneome. The kalk paste only worked on a few, and I also tried Joe's juice. Add to that, that the kalk paste raised my alk level in the system, which I don't want to do. I peel and peel and peel the anthelia, only to come along a few days later and find two our three annoying little polyps in the underside if a rock structure. Then,a week later, that two our three has turned into ten or twenty.
I really don't know what to do. Has anyone faced this and if so, short of chunking they good processed rock, what have you done? I'm even considering going rock by rock, taking each one out and burning them with a soldering iron(sort of an aggressive banjo wand approach). I mean it's that bad.
