I’ve got a leather coral growing off the base of my Xenia. The leathers gotten too big and the Xenia is starting to cover it up. How should I go about cutting the leather off and moving him somewhere else?

Leathers are super hardy. Scissors or a razor blade will work.

Take a rubber band and pin it down to a plug or a piece of rubble. All done.
 
I’d take it off a hair below the substrate (if possible) it’s stuck to so it don’t regenerate and can be easily glued somewhere else.
