Yellow polyps help

[Bpb]

Recently set up 90 gallon sps dominant mixed tank 4 months ago. On a piece of rock that found itself at the very bottom of the stack, it looks like a yellow polyp snuck it's way in. I really tried to remove as many pest species as I could from my previous tank but missed this one polyp. Next thing you know I blink and it's infiltrated and I can see will soon overgrow this rock and potentially others.

The whamming watermelon zoas that it's growing through..I can handle losing. I have a lot, but I would rather not remove this entire rock. It's about the size of a football and is supporting the bulk of my rock stack as it is.

How can I possibly remove the yellow polyps without taking apart the rock work

you can kalk paste the specific polyp of the one you want to remove. Only do a few at a time.

or make all the polyps close up and chip off the specific polyp off the rock piece

Will kalk paste negatively spike my alkalinity? I'm just finally getting over the dreaded "tank transfer acro colony STN event" that I lost so many acro colonies to

I tried aiptasia x and it as if they said "please sir, may we have some more?"

You might want to try removing them with some tweezers. I used to do this to keep certain varieties of zoanthids from intertwining. Just try and grab them as close to the base as you can. GL.

Yo como dicen el compañero manto sacaría la piedra y desde la base con un cuter o bisturi quitaría las cabezas de los parazohantus

which is why i was stating do it in small amounts.
