Good water parameters and lighting conditions will bring the zoa colour back.

You can dose iodine to aid the coloration as well.

it's hard to keep zoas harvested from their natural habitats because of the strong and rich natural sunlight they are exposed to which is hard to duplicate unless you are using MH which is, to a certain extend quite close. and also the abundance of trace elements, planktons, micro-organisms that provide food for them and very low nutrient levels and crystal clear waters. and natural predators to keep them off from zoas eating nudis.

chances are yr zoas will start to shrink day by day and either they melt away, or they will just close up and you are left with "dead" zoa rocks in yr tank.

sorry for being direct...i ever went to tioman and some of the islands around there and was told not to harvest corals for such reasons, that their survival rate will be low and also destroying their tourism trade if everyone starts to harvest corals.

Don't mind me asking - how did you manage to pass through customs with your frags?

So ... u wanna learn the art of smuggling corals! hahaha juz take a water bottle, put the frag inside, fill it up all with water

until no air bubbles are present so it will look like juz green beans in a bottle through X-ray

91litres,

ur actions cannot be tolerated. dun do that again and posting here to get other people influenced. even if you did again, you are just asking for trouble for urself by publicly telling others what you illegally did in a public forum.

[yikai]

The discussion here is going off topic. moreover, this issue is NOT allowed to be discussed in an open forum. what you have said is illegal and not only portray you in a bad name, but reflects badly on the community also. i hope you learn that what u did is wrong and u should never take anything from the wild. let alone blatantly showcase here. your tone and action reflects to me you are proud of what you did and not remorserful. even wan to teach the "art of smuggling"

this topic shall be locked until further notice/actions.
