Any ideas on what I can do to slow this war coral from encrusting up. It won’t be long before it starts growing into other coral.

Get kalkwasser and make a paste using the powder and some water. Make a thick enough yet thin enough paste to be drawn up in a Turkey baster.

Lay down a line of kalk with all Water Flow OFF.... that line will kill anything under neath it down to rock

The kalk line will solidify into a semi hard substance if you keep all flow calm for 4hrs.

With the line, it should stay there for several days. Corals will retract from that line for several weeks

If you don't have kalk, you can also do the same with aiptasia-X.
