There's a crab party going on on top of my zoas.

Of all the places to hang out, why did it have to be here?

sifting thru the polyps for deitrus accumilation. If you got a turkey baster and sprayed your polyps I bet you, you'd see a lot of crud flying off it. I do this once or twice a month to clean it off from sand/dietrus or other material collecting in between the polyps.

+1 at least once a month if you want to do it to all your corals make sure you are going to do a water change after tho so you dont have all of it running threw the system. but most of it will be out from the water change. its really good to do. !
