I don’t know how much you have but I killed mine little by little with aptaisia x. Once in a while a polyp pops up here or there but it worked pretty well for me.

I spent a little time today pulling the rocks out and chipping/scraping them off. All gone now!

I had some in my tank back in the early 2000s, had to 86 them after they started spreading onto my clam's shell.

They cant really be contained on their own rock lik GSP or an encrusting montipora, they will bud off, float away, settle and start growing somewhere else.
