Eating Zoa's

[bb]

It's become clear that something is eating my Zoa's. I've had them for month's with no problem but suddenly they are disappearing.

I believe the culprit is a Longspine Black Urchin. What do you guys think?


Thanks

If you have an urchin, it probably wouldn't eat them so much as it would just move over top of them causing them to get stuck in its spines. Also check for nudibranches as they are another big culprit.

Excellent link, cloak!

As to long spine black urchins, I have 2, and I've seen one eat the head of a coco worm, but they seem to leave zoas alone.
