Re: zoa removal
They will likely grow back from where you cut them off. Try smothering them with superglue instead.

Re: zoa removal
depending on what angle you can get to them..... Just take a razor or exacto knife and scrape under the base and try and get a think layer of rock. Dont forget your face shield!
 Throw it on a plug and sell it to someone in your club for like 5 bucks.Current Aquarium(s) Description: 150g, 24g,8g Experience in Saltwater & Reef Aquarium Hobby: About 1 Year Other Intrests: Computers, Robotics
