Have you tried hydrogen peroxide, the 30% stuff?

I have been using it on nuisance algae and aiptasia and saw a few coral control posts on the web. Once it oxidizes what it hits it is pure water so is inert in seconds. It may work well on a soft coral like that.

I use a Kent feeder and it works great.

I agree with the hydrogen peroxide. It got rid of a ton of mushrooms that we're taking over some rocks.
