    Micro Zoa ID?

    I set up my tank some time ago and had only fish and inverts. Then I ended up inheriting some live rock and zoas from someone who was shutting down their tank. I have what I believe to be a large paly colony, but then also these suuuuper tiny zoas. When I asked the guy what any of them were he...

    Toxic Paly or Zoa?

    Hi everyone, Can y’all please help me ID these? They came with the tank when I purchased it a few years back and I always thought they were zoas but was told recently otherwise. I was told they are captain jerks. Depending on the spot in the tank the color changes. I was going to bleach the...

    Zoa shrinking…?

    Hello fellow reefers! I have a few colonies of zoas which are doing amazing but one particular zoa has been getting smaller rather than bigger despite other corals showing no signs of stress… change in lighting is due to the lens I’m using not the actual light. Bluer photo is before, whiter...

    Zoa ID Help

    Hi everyone! I saw this Zoa at a LFS and now it’s gone. Can anyone help? Pic is not great, so the tentacles are a reddish-brown color. The disc is obviously yellow and the mouth area is a whitish-blue color. Any ideas? Is this a “zombie” of some sort? Thanks!

    Zoa stretching? Wandering? Idk?!?

    Hey all! New to this forum… I have a mini colony of captain jerk zoas and it looks like one is stretching off of the plug? Pretty neat.

    Unidentified pest after Zoa dip

    A couple of these bugs came off my zoas after dipping. They are very small, 2-3mm. Mostly translucent. They have 2 thin long antennas on their head. I looked at photos of Zoanthid-eating nudibranchs and those are much thicker than what I found. Are these just amphipods? I do have amphipods in my...

    Zoas and Palys

    Has anyone ever had any experience with palytoxin from a Zoa or Paly? I’ve heard and read about it and it seems to be pretty nasty but i’m not sure what the actual risk is.

    Do you run carbon in your mixed reefs to try to limit chemical warfare?

    I've been reading about softie chemical warfare, and how brutal they can apparently be, along with of course Paly/zoas. Do you run carbon to try to protect your non-softies, or would it even make a difference?

    Zoa Pox? Zoas Closed up

    Hi Everyone, I'm afraid I might have zoa pox. Since yesterday, my zoas have started closing up. Just now I noticed a white spot on one of the closed up polyps. Could this be anything else? Is there any good treatment for this?
