Hi Folks, I hope that everyone is staying safe and not losing your minds :oops:

I have a nuisance coral, don't even know the name of it, that I need to kill off. In the picture it is the top coral. Any suggestions please?

Those are palyzoas. I would say just cover them in epoxy but those particular palys look like the ones with palytoxins so I am not sure how you could safeley remove them. (there are two paly types that have the dangerous type of toxin). If you do smother them in epoxy, run carbon and wear gloves and glasses.
