If you tried a screwdriver and a wrench and that did not help then you will probably have to saw them off with a hack saw. Be carefull not to crack the tank or bowl. Good luck.

Nip it or Grip it
Using a sharp nipper, nip it piece by piece until it's unfrozen.
You can also grip it tight with a vise-grip and turn it.
