Hey everyone. Have a few questions relating to transferring some zoas to my new tank - RSR 250 from a Biocube 32g.

I have one rock that is large and ideally I wouldn’t bring it to my new tank as it doesn’t fit my aquascape. I had some briopsys issues and hair algae issues in the last tank (as well as what I believe are Dino’s) and don’t want to risk transferring them to the new tank.

What’s the best methodology for transferring these corals? Should I just get some bone cutters and cut up the rock? Should I move the whole rock even though it will look terrible? How do I deal with the algae risk? There isn’t a ton of algae left on these and I think the risk is low, I’m just a little concerned.
 
Chisel off the corals u want and dip them in a h2o2 dip for the algae.
