You can say they are good because they will eat nutrients in your tank, but most of us consider them bad because:

1.) they multiply fast
2.) are ugly
3.) will sting other corals

Basically as stated above, they can take over.

There are many methods to kill them, personally I just mix KALK with water to make a pasty liquid and then using a syringe, I inject and cover each one. Will usually kill them in one try.
