Glue a shell on top of it to block it's light. This works with many out of control growers.

Chip it off the rock for frags. That's a pretty coral IMO and desirable. Frags could be traded or sold if you want.

No doubt, just scrape it off, break it off, whatever, but glue it to a frag and give it to someone for free

Had a small torch that killed a mushroom that got too close.
Then, it proceeded to eat the dead mushroom.
Couple days later, the torch kicked the bucket.

Pretty sad that in the coral propagation and aquaculture section we have a post on how to kill coral.
