I mostly won the battle of this in my tank, but it's still on some corals. I tried scrubbing it with a toothbrush on some pieces but they got damaged from the bristles even though I didn't scrub hard.

In the tank, mostly clean up crew and using gfo and carbon helps, if the frags can be removed hp dips have worked for me in the past.
