hi i have a zoa zoa pox and i have dipped it but i think it was too late, what i was wondering is i assume it spreads so will it be enough to just put the infected zoas on the other side of the tank?

All your zoas will get it eventually if you have zoa pox. Maybe send a picture below and your parameters including temp and salinity so we can help get a better understanding of the situation. Moving them to one side of the tank will not help either. What did you dip it with? Furan 2 was the old treatment for pox but I’ve had success with aqualiferx nitrofurazone powder:


And following the same steps used in the furan treatment but with this product. PS: try to eyeball 85 MG per dip. Hope this helps!

Thank you for all you help! Sadly I’ve had a holiday booked since the beginning of the summer and the zoa pox annoyingly happened the day before I left so now I think they will probably end up dying sadly I’ll text if they survived when I am back but even if they didn’t thank you very much because now if my Zoas ever get zoa pox I know what to dip them in
