Hi CVU! Nice to see you on R2R. Yes, that's pectinia poop. What are you feeding yours? Mine does it fairly often as well, probably because of all the feedings that happen during the day.

P.s., Your white zombies have gone crazy and are growing up my glass, but I unfortunately lost the magicians, which were doing well, but I didn't pay attention to them and they got overrun by another zoa/paly. Ended up with 3 polyps out of about 20 at its peak, and they melted when I pulled them off and put them elsewhere. Same happened with my spitfires, except that was partly my fault because I accidentally gave away my colony thinking it was something else and was left with only a couple of polyps that didn't make it. If you're selling those again sometime, I might have to snag a frag!
 
I just mix reef roid with other regular dried fish food and feed them through the avast. I saw it pooped only once and haven't seen it again. And my white zombie is doing OK but not great at the moment. Will let you know when it's getting large enough to frag. Thanks for the info.
 
Hi @JoJosReef, I have a question. I have a small rock that was fully covered with Utter Chaos. It was so bright and beautiful. But lately the zoas retreat and loss its brightness. Should I dip that small rock in something to revive it?

How are your nitrates and phosphates? My utter chaos (I think from you as well) have not being doing great and I've had a steady rise in nutrients (NO3 > 100ppm, PO4 off the chart). Working on bringing that down, but seems to have ticked off a few of the zoas, one being the utter chaos. My second hypothesis is that I've had an Aiptasia outbreak that has gotten between my zoas which might be bothering them into closing up/melting. The Aips have killed off an entire colony of my fireworks cloves that all closed up and turned brown at the ends.

My nitrate was at 11ppm and phosphate was 0.9ppm. So I think they are not that high. I love that rock, probably will dip it in KFC (without antibiotics) today.

Probably a good first step. Meanwhile could keep an eye out for anything in the tank that has taken a liking to bright red polyps.
