I bought my first zoas and they looked great in my tank initially, then I noticed a few polyps would close up during the day. I started to inspect a little closer and found a couple polyps with white orbs growing on them and I'm not sure what it is. Bacteria maybe? I dipped them with revive before placing them in my tank so I'm fairly confident it's not a pest problem. Any help would be appreciated.

Not sure, picture is kinda blurry. But I'd try H2O2 in a syrenge the end pressed against those two spots directly with about a ml to see what happens.

They look like eggs of some sort, I’d say fish eggs but I’m unsure
