![]() I was hoping there was a way to completely remove some of the tissue from the liverock so it simply does not grow back again but it sounds like that is not possible?

![]() It depends on what it is, I have Anthelia which pretty much just peels off the rock if you do it slowly and use a guitar pick or fingernail, I haven't had it grow back where I tore it off unless you count the 'creep' from the main colony.

![]() 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...

![]() This. I put the stuff I cut off into a ziploc baggie and even then after double bagging it the trash smells BRUTAL. Putting a bit of water in the bag helps a bit but it isn't perfect.
