So I have a relatively new acan rescue frag. Upon further observation, I found what appears to be a baby mantis hitchhiker bored into the base of the acan in the skeleton between the frag and plug. I tried popping the frag off with my fingers and couldn’t get it off. I want to neither kill the frag or the hitchhiker.
So is it safer to try to remove the frag from the plug? And if so how?
Or is there a safe way to flush the little cave without killing the coral but getting it to come out?
It only comes out about 1/2 way at max and hides instantly when I put any light on him
