Xenia especially can be just peeled off the rock. I just get the edge of a razor under it and start peeling back. It'll go limp and slimy while you do it which makes it extra fun but just keep reefin' on it (no pun intended). Some areas of your rock will be more porous, so you'll have to scrape the get the flesh off. Keep your turkey baster handy to suck up floaters before they get away. Make sure you get all of the flash off otherwise it just grows back. I left a tiny layer of film/flesh on a rock once and two hours later there were new polyps forming. It was retarded...
