This pocillopora has taken over my tank- i will be moving the favia to another tank, and would like to eradicate the pocillopora. They are on a frag rack designed to sit on the sand and i would really rather not have to cut it in half to rid it of the pocillo. Any suggestions besides cutting it off? I tried using a hobby dremel to remove it a while back but it obviously didn’t get it all, as it’s grown back with a vengeance. I don’t suppose h2o2 in a spray bottle is going to cut it? Thanks

Side Note: Hypothetically, if i let them fight it out, who would win?

Chiseling off May be best option

Hmm…i like it! I’ll probably need to move it to a secondary tank though to make sure i got it all. I’m terrified of it getting into my new tank.
Or you can place rock in tub of tank water and perform this
