I was gone for three days...

I came home to what looks like cyno all over my zoa frag... My water and glass is looks green. I don't know what happened.
 
My mother fed the fish while I was away yes.

I don't know _your_ Mom, but I've met some in the past who ... let's just say they weren't great proponents of "portion control".

I suspect now that the tank is back under your care, things will stabilize somewhat . . . Keep an eye, though.

She said they just wouldn't stop eating.. Lol. Its sort of a funny matter because you do not leave my mothers house with an empty stomach.

But anyways, the tank is back in my hands. The tanks a 14 gallon biocube, I plan on doing about 5 gallon water change tonight, I read that I could dip the frag in hydrogen peroxide (still reading into that.), clean the rocks with a bristle brush and gravel cleaner.
 
Starve it with no lights for 3 days and covering your tank with news paper make it dark. Place flow in areas where it's at most and it should go away. Control feeding.
Worst case you can use chemi clean but I would only do so,as last resort.
 
I just want everyone to know that problem is gone for right now.

I went total darkness for two days. Did a massive water change, the tank looks happier than ever right now!
