They're a pain and very stubborn! I have 3 I'd like to get rid of and I need to get them off the rocks.

Does the foot loosen up when cutting? It's the biggest pain to get them off of the rocks.

I've only ever cut them when I haven't been attached to rockwork.

I found that doing it out of water is easier if you can take the rock out, dangle the BTA downward and let gravity does some work for you..it will take some time....

Got tired of macro kept getting suck into my return pump. Made a divider out of laser cut acrylic and 2 little 3DP stand and shoved it in my return chamber. Now I have more space for macro!

I still don't know if I would feel comfortable doing it! Worries me a bit. Corals are no problem.

Gotta make sure your tank is stabilized and have enough trust in it lol. I wasn't feeling comfortable either and nature forced my hand lol, I was glad it went ok

I remember the first time I did it I was scared but they recovered pretty quickly.

Even if they don't have a mouth, it would grow one?

Yeah it seems like it. Mine didn't cut right in the middle and both seems to grow a mouth now
