Aptesia x seems to take care of palys too

How many nuisance palys are we talking about here??

I removed some with ease, do this out of the tank.... I used tweezers and ripped them off... Depending on the paly some are easier than others. I had a zoa frag that had 8 green/brown palys mixed in. Ripped them off easily because they have a tough outer skin... Be sure to wear eye protection.

If that doesn't work throw the paly rock in your sump or refuge and replace with new rock in the display...

Probably close to 200 I want to get rid of.
