use some Kalk paste on any remining after cutting away.

Butane cigar lighter...Let em fry.

I have tons and now I just sell them, the good ones will help pay for the tank...If they are bothering other soft coral you can also use a syringe with vinager or sting them with a torch coral till they move or die. As far as the Softies I have not had a problem with them playing poorly together only when you mix them with SPS I hand some bullying till the mushrooms eventually took over.

All corals release toxins. Ozone and carbon along with frequent waterchanges help.

Also you can try them with a 400 watt 20K XM bulb they do look cool, much better than under a 10K
