cool vids. thanks for sharing! are the polyps that he's cutting out zoas? aren't they toxic or something...

zoa ain't toxic. palyp is.

A few websites were referring to zoas being toxic and can squirt juice out.

[Victor007]

yes, some of them are. zoanith is a big family group.

palythoa is in the family. and one of the most toxic is Palythoa caribaeorum.

read these two thread in RC and the second one is abt a dog which died after eating it :vomit: :

just wear a glove for fragging as a safety precaution.

anyway most reported case are from the palythoa family.

most zoas contains a relatively small amount of toxic but dun play a fool with palythoa.

as long as u wear a glove and u dun eat it, u'll be safe. that includes singing when u are fragging. open goallie.

haha.

my 2cents.

Cheers.

if u worry that it's toxic, pass them to me, i suffer in ur place.
