    Most LFS have a band saw these days. Assuming you don't have one yourself, call your store, they should be able to cut off MOST of the plug quickly and easily.

    That's a really good question ^

    any chance you could work a razor blade between the fungia and plug?

    I was thinking of doing just that-but I'm kind a scared
    She's really not liking it-I'd love her to be able to move where she's most comfortable-I gotta think on this one...

    Miz- take your time thinking about it. I would let it settle in real good, and then maybe attempt it, if it looks like its possible
