the zoa eating snails are v small and tiny..

My zoas gana infested with nudis and polyps start to closed up and shrink. I dip it in fresh water for 10mins, not much use. Next day, still have some nudis appearing.

When i put back into my tank, my zoas release some toxins....my cleaner shrimp tio poison, died.

In the end, i have no choice but to throw away..sad. :cry2:

I heard those zoas from indonesia usually will have nudis.

Just let it be at the sandbed for a while. It should be ok after a few weeks.

Hmm I have the same problem, got some zoos from GO, intially opens up nicely for 1 week or so then now remain closed, same thing for the other zoo. Parameters are all OK. I suspect my anemone crab is at it, so relocated it up the reef. The unfortunate thing is that only the more expensive and prettier zoos got affected, but the cheaper uglier one is growing perfectly well.... :rolleyes:
