Supposedly they let go if disturbed, so maybe try poking them with a stick and then siphon them out if they do let go. Otherwise, maybe try injecting with kalk paste?

Joe's Juice has worked for me. You just have to really layer it on them well, and turn all your powerheads and filtration off for about 1/2 hour afterwards helps a lot.

They are so different from aiptasia, I stabbed them with a syringe filled with vinegar, and they came loose, I just grabbed them and flushed them.

This thread inspired me... I just went and took the rock with the 3 majanos on it and manually removed them... I had to break it into 3 pieces, now I have 3 zoo frags! I can even take one and trade it in for something!

Try injecting them with boiling water and then plucking them off. Its worked for me.
