Disconnecting the throttle body vacuum hose?

How exactly does one disconnect the vacuum hose on the throttle body? Does it just pull off the nipple or is there a clip or clamp? I want to Seafoam, but I can't figure out how to remove this and don't want to risk breaking it.

The only time I've ever needed to get that hose off is to remove the throttle body to clean it, so I've always had all the breather parts already off. If I remember correctly, you just press down on the plastic piece on the hose so it clears the "lip" on the tube and it slips right off. Here's a video, it's about 3/4 of the way through the video. Hope this helps:
