This rock used to be a huge colony of dragon eye zoas. This stuff is ugly, very difficult to remove manually, is capable of overgrowing other corals, and drops polyps to spread to other areas of the tank.

In this tank we have a school of 5 Klein's Butterflyfish and 4 Bluefin Damsels (Paraglyphidodon melas)...both of which are supposed to eat soft corals. Unfortunately they don't touch the stuff.

Any ideas?
I've been battling this nasty stuff for the better part of a year! have had to take out entire chunks of rock and dry it out. have also had to resort to epoxy to smother the SOB. It has been a slow and expensive process. I'm going to have to look into this peroxide business.
