Too many buttons!

I have some button polyps that have absolutely engulfed the lower rocks in the tank. They are actually starting to smother some other corals. They are very hard to take off manually. Does anyone have a good solution for removing a bunch of them?

I'll send over 10 or 20 of my zooanthid eating nudibranchs that I can't eradicate and they will make short work of all of them!

Take the rock out, and trade it to the LFS.
I had to trade in four large gsp rocks for the same reason.
