Got this brain coral today. It has receded and some wild polyps have encrusted on the skeleton.
Any ideas of how to get the polyps off without damaging the Brain Coral?
I was thinking of cut them off with a razor blade or maybe targeting them with kalkwasser.

Kali is not gonna do much good....I would consider using a sharp knife and trying to widdle them off the rock it is on getting as much rock underneath them as possible. If you have a coral saw that would be easiest, just cut off the skeleton with the sows attached....!!! Remember to use gloves and eye protection while doing it since platytoxin is nothing to toy with.
