Is it possible to force some of the seaweed on the Uvi base apart with water pressure between the leaves? Alternatively, would coating the leaves with ice make them easier to handle/break off? I just want to get a handle on if it's thoroughly impenetrable at this time or if characters could do stuff to actively try and enter, or to trap the Uvi inside for a while!

-- ALSO ASKING FOR A FRIEND SINCE I'M ALREADY HERE is it possible to capture one of the Uvi alive and hold it for a while?
