What’s the best way to separate these. They are stuck tight.  
I was thinking maybe put them in a tote of water?

Sit on the floor with the bottom one between your legs and use both hands to pull the second one as hard as you can... that's what I do

Plastic, I assume?

Terra Cotta (clay)

Just like plant lover said, but squeeze those legs together to make them into an oval shape, and I think that will do it.

Bag of ice in the top one while the bottom one soaks in warm water.

WD-40 spray. Cooking oil.

This. Temperature difference will make them either expand or shrink. Bottom one needs to expand, top one needs to shrink. It just might work.

GOT IT! 🎉🎉

It worked, hairdryer then soak in hot water with ice pack in top pot. 😉

Put in the freezer. Once frozen they will separate
