Ive had some cherry charms for a while that are not as nice colored as i would like. I plan to remove them the question is how do I remove them from the rock safely?

I also have this coral (sold to me as lobo) which receded after an alk swing can it be brought back?

Palys will be free if I can safely remove them & so will the lobo if it can be brought back. Dont pm about this yet i will have a free thread when they are available

How about toss the rock in bucket of water for a few days with no heater so the water gets cold and kills the polyps

If it eats itll come back i'm sure. I got a scolly for my nano a while back for free that was in the same shape. Came back fine.

If you were closer I'd give it a shot. A tank transfer might be the end all but it is free so no one should be complaining :thumb:

The lobo is a goner. They are tough but once they go downhill they don't stop, I've lost a few like this . I'd take it out because it can spike your nitrates pretty fast if it decomposes in the tank
