How do I remove an attached Ricordia?

Does anyone have any advice on how to get a ricordia off of the rock it's attached to. I came close to just ripping it off the other day, but if there's a better way I'm open to suggestions.

 

Thanks!

i would take a really really sharp razor and try to scrape it off as close to the rock as possible........... do it in as close to one clean cut as possible, and then place the cut off ric in a low flow area so it can reattach itself with less problems. Rics can be pretty touchy, but this should work alright. ANd who knows, you might get another ric out of the remains on the rock!!

Use a razor blade like sandlot said but cut through the rock and not the ric....Yes a razorblade will cut through rock but you might need to hit the razor blade with a hammer to do it...

Thanks for the info. I'll probably try and chip around it and see what happens. Worst case scenario it was a very inexpensive plain green ric that I won't mind losing.
