I have never tried anything clever with my corals and have a couple of questions concerning my baby sarcophytons. I hope the picture works as I have not tried adding one before!

1: Is the red corraline algae growing on the base of the one to the left anything to worry about? If it is, what can I do?
2: As three are all squeezed onto one tiny rock I want to seperate them. I have read into this a fair bit and have these issues:
(a) Won't an elastic band crush something so small and fragile?
(b) Advice on one web site suggested attaching it to a new rock upside down, with the stalk where it was cut up in the air and the head face down on the new rock. Is this true?
Any advice greatly appreciated.
