Hello all,

Just saw this on one of my zoa frags and upon a quick google search, looks like this can be zoa pox? Can anyone confirm or put my mind at ease? Photo was taken at night using a flashlight.

I’d add they open fully and seem happy during the day

Are those Zoanthids or Palythoa? If true Zoanthid than I would be suspicious. Are the polyps opening normally?

They are zoanthids. Everything opens up fully during the day.

It’s the frag in the back right in photo attached. Not Superman zoas but similar in color.
