Default Zoanthid Removal

What's the best tool for removing zoos from the rock. I'm looking for a way to keep the zoos away from my sps, like maybe a miniature dutch hoe or something Every once in a while I'd like to be able to scrape them off from around my corals (and propagate the nice ones) without disturbing things too much.

I use a popsicle stick. Sometimes my fingernail, but some people are afraid of dying, so you probably don't want to do that.

I use a scalple to cut the zoa then a chizel to scape them off.

I use my regal angel...hard to propagate that way though and the nicest looking ones are her favourites

LOL Your angle's appetite probably would extend to some of my more prized corals as well.

You can get a good scapel/wood carving kit at Canadian Tire on sale once in a while seems to work good for me
