Sad Zoas..?

[justjes45]

Ok- I have had my tank for about 3 years now… it has had all ALL of the “new kid on the block” ups and downs and learning curves...
Over the past two weeks I have watched my zoas close up and shrink. Why? They SHOULD be one of the easiest things, right?
The carpet anemone and torch’s are fine. Fish, all fine.... mushrooms, happy....

Any advice?

This won't be of any help to you, but up until recently all of my zoas would slowly do the same thing. Within a few weeks, they would just slowly close up and stop coming out and just die. About a month or two ago, however, I bought two frags and they have been doing great and even growing and popping new polyp. Perhaps in both of our situations, it could have to do with the specific zoa? The ones I currently have are different from my old ones.

My situation was also the same as in I had and have SPS just fine and growing, but the zoas just wouldn't work before.
