Help me!!! I found these on my zoas... what are they and how do I get rid of them?

Had those before and a green mandarin ate them, also swooshed my colonies in freshwater.

Use Gambusia for the mosquitos.

So pretty much just put them in fw for like 10 min, and I should be good-to-go...?

Can I ask how you got them out/off the zoa's? Did you do a dip and swoosh? Or did you pluck?

I'm always worried about my prized zoas. I would like to be more diligent in inspecting them, but I'm also afraid of irritating them.

thank you.

The few I've had I've maunaully removed them. You can also do the dip that is stickied at the top of the page...is the firedancer a dmb reference?

I bought a Mystery Wrasse. He ate every lase nudi and all of the eggs. I took about 3 to four weeks until they were completely gone. After the large ones are eaten you will start to notice there are no new eggs being deposited.
