Button Polyps?

Ive got some button polyps that are overtaking one of my rocks. What is the best way to get rid of them without killing off all the lovely coralline that Ive got covering my rock?

I also have button issues
I either pluck them one by one in some areas or lately I've been putting LR on them & they will attached themselves to the rock to get to the light.. and then I sell the rock
They are such a nussiance when they get to be out of control!!
