How do I get rid of clove polyps!!!!

Does anyone know how to get rid of this stuff. It’s growing more than I can keep it back and it’s attacking corals now!

Fenbendazole

This thread has everything you need to know about using fenbendazole. My first post is #472 with a few follow ups as well. There's a lot of detailed information from others who have used it successfully too.

you could try a laser, but run activated carbon

If fenbendazole, doesn't work. Then you will need to break down aquarium and srart over. That is where I am at today with main display. Good luck as allot of people had success.

If it's just on certain rocks. My advice would be to immediately remove them and discard. If it's everywhere then fenbendazole is your best bet

I quite unintentionally eliminated mine when I added a pencil urchin to the tank to eat GHA... The Algae stayed, the cloves got eaten... The urchin found itself rehomed to the LFS lol

Now that is pretty cool

I am not recommending that as a solution, just relating that the urchin ate my small frag...
