I used a blow torch. It was a small rock, they weren't near anything and who doesn't like to use a torch?

ITS BAD FOR CORALS!!! Capiche?

Its called Panacur. If you have a fowlr like me, you should be fine. I got it from Seahorsesource.com last week. I have not tried it yet.

I used ZeoSpur2. It was recommended on another website and it killed every last one. Mine were Myrionema Hydroids. I don't know if this will work on other/all types of Hydroids.

What is bad about hydroids? I just recently learned their name. I had a couple a while back, but now I seem to have a lot more.

I soaked my rocks 48 hours in freshwater. That kills everything.
