Star polyp removal/

[BPryor]

Good afternoon everyone.

First time posting, my star polyps have really gotten out of hand.

I've seen posts on many options from glue, to kalk, to boiling water. And also Chem that can disturb some of my other species I do not wish to disturb.

On the video, the coral I think that effected my Duncan was I handled an elegence wrong (was beautiful) and I think it caused the infection.

But I'm really thinking the siphon method will work best on my clove polyp colony? I let it really get out of hand. Covering some zoas in the process.
Thoughts? Sorry dealing with covid. So I'm a bit sluggish and blah atm...

Not able to see the video but to clarify, you are looking to remove clove polyps or green star polyps?

Assuming clove polyps, Kalk paste would do the trick. I’ve had success manually removing runners and / or scraping with a razors blade as well.

They pull apart easily, just use your nails to scrape them away.
