Please help how do I get my zoanthids of my feather duster

[FabiAc]

Hello, I recently bought a feather duster with some zoanthids growing on it, I was wondering if there is any safe way I could frag them or move the zoas to another rock, Plase Help, thanks

hi, welcome to the reef...
green palys ,personally i'd leave em'
should carefully peel off in a clump , be careful use PPE, and don't touch face or eyes until sure hands are clean!!
search palytoxin before you proceed ...

100% agree with above. Eye protection and I'd do a disposable mask and gloves.

Please be careful. I did a quick search here on reef2reef. This is a the story of a guy from my local club and what happened to he and his family. Heck of a nice guy.

World's 2nd deadliest poison, in an aquarium store near you!

Glad I read this being new to hobby . Being cautious and wearing the proper ppe before doing anything seems to be the safest bet , and still able to enjoy the variety.

I think the piece looks nice as it is

If you have a flamethrower, that may help.
In all seriousness, keep it as far away from the main rockwork as possible unless you want it completely taking over the tank.
