I see, good to know. I also have these not sure what type these are though
Won't be able to tell what type of Paly they are until they open up for you.

Gotcha i'll upload once i get them to openWon't be able to tell what type of Paly they are until they open up for you.
I agree coral is sparse and is getting more and more rarer in the wild. Throwing it away is a total waste and is highly irresponsible.At the very least sell the rock with palys on it or gift it to a fellow reefer
Excuse the potato photoWon't be able to tell what type of Paly they are until they open up for you.
I assueme its some sort of dragon green zoa https://www.google.com/search?q=dra...gN7jAhUEy1kKHWSwACMQ_AUIESgB&biw=1920&bih=891 but will need to see it fully open to know for sure.Excuse the potato photo
Anyone here who throws out coral or tells other people to throw out coral is a dunce.
I have heard of this but it only happens in extreme circumstances when they overdose kalk or crash the tank in some other way and the palys die off and they don't run carbon. Running any carbon will negate most if not all palytoxin.I have personally seen two reefs get totally distrusted in under 24 hours when "certain" types of plays have kicked in.
Also I see your edit and Sanjay would never tell people to throw them out he would do as @Crabs McJones suggested and gift them or sell them.I have personally seen two reefs get totally distrusted in under 24 hours when "certain" types of plays have kicked in.
Obliviously you have not, but it sure heatbreaking to watching another go down like that.
Even Sanjay has lost entire reef due to plays. Is he a dunce too?
Should i run carbon right now?I have heard of this but it only happens in extreme circumstances when they overdose kalk or crash the tank in some other way and the palys die off and they don't run carbon. Running any carbon will negate most if not all palytoxin.

You should always run carbon and change it monthly or maybe quicker when having palys or zoas as it removes the toxins in case of a meltdown/crash and will help to stop or prevent this or even limit the crash. Yes it can be dangerous to keep these corals but they are highly rewarding and if all you are doing is soft corals your basically stuck with them because there is not many other nice soft corals.Should i run carbon right now?

Ok sir thank you
I will agree to disagree with you and I am sorry about the choice of wording and have edited my original post but throwing out coral is entirely reckless and wasteful considering the state of the ocean and reefs today.In all due respect:
You have no clue what your talking about and I have seen it first hand on two occasions.
One time there was a Marine Biologist on hand and it was still a total melt down.
If you run enough carbon it will strip out all your nutrients and they plays will keep firing.
Sanjay lost one of his reefs with plays too.
My friend we're going the have to agree to disagree, but if you ever call another member a dunce again, I will personally report it to the mods.
I threw em in a ziplock bag and put them in a freezer before disposingI will agree to disagree with you and I am sorry about the choice of wording and have edited my original post but throwing out coral is entirely reckless and wasteful considering the state of the ocean and reefs today.
@Mike1976 Also just throwing out palys is dangerous in its self if they are not disposed of in a properly sealed bag as when they dry out they could release harmful or deadly amounts of palytoxin into the air. https://www.reef2reef.com/threads/worlds-2nd-deadliest-poison-in-an-aquarium-store-near-you.94354/

Thank you for using a ziplock bag not sure about the freezer as I wouldn't want them near my foodI threw em in a ziplock bag and put them in a freezer before disposing
Dont worry there's no food only beers [emoji23]Thank you for using a ziplock bag not sure about the freezer as I wouldn't want them near my food [emoji14]
