Encrusting Gorgonian

I want to control it before it gets out of control.
It was spreading across a few rocks, so I took one rock out
and scrubbed it down clean with a stiff brush. Thought it was all gone and I see it again in very small areas again. Some rocks cant
be taken out to clean.....

Epoxy over it and cross your fingers!

LOL .. I thought it was a For Sale thread and didn't click for a while thinking "I don't want to bring that mess into my system"

Glad to see you aren't selling that stuff. Good luck with removal. Some people have killed it off by spreading a thick kalk paste over it but you will need to turn off pumps and powerheads so it has time to work before being dissolved into the water.

The kalk paste plus a syringe is what I do, but it is so hard to control. Wish it wasnt even in my system. One thing I have done cool with it is glued it to the back of my tank and it has taken off there, just need to make sure no LR touches the back of the tank. It looks great on the back. Also won't grow lower on the back in the shade. Very easy to control on glass or acrylic also. Very pretty, very pesky.
