The good news is that everything is growing well and seam to be happy. My concern is the GSP encroaching on the hard coral; what will happen? do I need to do anything?

Definately cut it off. I actually have GSP growing from the base of my zoas up. All that is left of a colony is just the heads of the zoas, I have to get in there soon and save them or the zoas will be gone..

I cut it with a raser blade then tried to peal it off of the rock but it is stuck very tight. Is there a way to remove it in one piece?
Thanks,
Tim

Usually you can scrape part of the matt off with a razor blade. Some let it grow on the back wall and then you can get a piece off easily on the smooth surface.
I would get it away from your coral but if you want more, just put a rock next to the GSP and it will grow onto the rock. Then you can just cut the two rocks apart.
