I have some zoas that I thought I'd cut off the base of a Monti a few times but keeps coming back. Is there anything I can put on or inject etc to kill them once and for all?

I’ve used F-Aiptasia or Kalk paste in the past. If you are cutting a bunch in the display I’d run some carbon.

It's just like 4 or 5 polyps that keep growing out from under the monti and I don't want to break it off the rock to kill the few zoas there, but they are definitely preventing new growth on that side of it
