very awkward situation... please help

[Certain]

Ok so because my clownfish kept on trying to push over my toadstool, i decided to buy a superglue to stick it to the rocks(its on a plug) But then after a while i found out that the spot isn't a ideal location for the toadstool, and when i tried to pull the plug off the rock, it won't buldge. Believe me, i tried to pull as hard as i can, but it simply won't come off. Is there any other way to get the plug off without using force? Any help is appreciated

I got a red coris wrasse that can break superglue bond in .3 seconds lol.

If the bond is so much that you just cant get it off i would say an option is bone cutters or similar. Something you can cut the rock/plug off the main structure.

You could always try a spoon to pry the plug where it meets the rock. I have had to do this a few times and for whatever reason, it always seems to break it loose. I just put the tip of the spoon under the plug somewhere that it will fit and then twist the spoon while holding the larger part of the spoon and not the handle.

As mentioned above, it is possible to try and chisel the piece of rock off just under where the base of the coral ends.

If I had to guess what has happened to you, toadstools will attach to rocks, shells, rubble, etc on their own over time.

I would guess that you glued it there, and it has since begun to attach on it's own on top of that, most likely making a stronger bond as you mentioned.

Like Steve said spoon or butter knife or screw driver etc. I have yet to have a plug that I couldn't pop off a rock with one of these methods . Super glue and even super glue combined with epoxy putty still can pop em off.
