I just added my first coral - zoanthus - to my tank yesterday, and while I was accllimating the coral, the cup I was using to scoop water out of the bag with collided with the coral...
The coral is now (mostly) happily living in it's new home, but there's a section that's not opened, and I suspect these are the animals that were hit and perhaps killed by the cup.
Should I remove this section, as I've got a brand new tank without a whole lot of bioload, yet? So far, 1 3.5" maroon clown, 1 1" maroon clown, a banded coral shrimp, 5 nassarius snails, and 6 algae-eating snails (sorry, forgot the name)...
Testing now for ammonia, etc... will post again with results.
Thanks for the help!
