If it is just that one take it out and put in a bucket and scrub it off. Or you could just inject it with lemon juice in its mouth. One isn't a big deal as long as you catch it early.
 
Confirmed on aiptasia.

Don't scrub it off till after zapping it with lemon juice. Coat the mouth then inject. Let it sit for 10 minutes and then scrub. And when you think you've gotten it all off, put more lemon juice on the area it was sitting to make sure there aren't any straggling parts left to regrow.
