    well the glass is the best place to remove it from! use a credit card or a spatula and gently scrape it off, try putting it on a rock solo, in medium flow and see if it grabs hold! they do tend to walk around, especially if it doesnt like the flow at first, so lower is better and hopefully it will like its spot away from coral!

    i peel mine off slowly with my fingers. nems are unpredictable but they will find a favorable crevice and stick too it.

    its not that easy lol but if you put them away from the other kids, they play better by themselves! but honestly, the one place you dont want them, that's where they'll go!
