I've had that stuff all over my tank before too. I had it for about 2 months. I never bothered pulling the rock out, but I just plucked out as much as I could every couple days. Then I started doing 4gal water changes every day (120gal tank) and in about 3 weeks the stuff burned itself out and disappeared.
Good luck!
