A few weeks ago I got rid of my Xenia after it started dropping polyps/spreading. I thought I’d gotten them all but there’s this one little one in a Zoa colony….

Any good way to remove it?

If you don’t care about keeping it and just want it out then you can try grabbing it with some forceps and ripping it out. If you want to save it and relocate it then slide a razor blade underneath the tissue attached to the rock.
