I just used a small screwdriver to chip off tiny pieces of rock they were attached to.
Be careful, if you damage it with the screwdriver it can release spores and spread. That is why people inject them instead of scraping them off.

I built a high power blue laser to try and burn them off a few years ago when I had a small outbreak. Problem with the laser (it's what I did in college) is the water distorts the beam and you can't concentrate enough power to burn the aiptaisia.
Here's 3 watts of green laser light that will burn paper, but after it goes thru the tank walls and water it is pretty tame.
It became clear that a beam with killing power would have also punched a hole in the tank wall. It was an interesting experiment.
Would've been cool until a fish swam through the beam and got sliced in half. Lol. You can still use it to annoy cats.
