I need to know how. I have about 20 on a hair algae infested rock. I want to transfer them to a non-infested rock. I don't need all 20 since they grow like weeds and if I have maybe 5-10 I will be fine.

Thanks

Pull a few off with a pair of forceps. Throw them into a small disposable tupperware container (with holes for circulation) full of rock rubble. In a little bit, they will attach. Put the rock where you want it. Done

Can I use anything else besides forceps? Anyother ways to pull them off?

tweezers, but be careful not to pop them! try to pry them off

take a razor blade and sometimes you can cut a slice off the rock with the polyp still attached to it and you can super glue that where you want. I have done this.
