new to zoanthids.. well corals in general

[nathan1986]

okay so I bought a frag of some orange zoas and a nice size rock covered in yellowish zoas and I noticed every morning my girlfriends biocube has a lot of brown stringy stuff all over. makes the tank look like crap. it gets in her frogspawn, all 3 types of her hammers, it gets stuck on the turban snails shells (kinda funny looking a snail with a brown flag/banner on it haha) her clowns even have it on them at times. the zoas have ben in there for 3 days. will this eventually stop or will I have to continually use a turkey baster to remove this stuff? thanks for all any any help.

If this is what your talking about then its natural but not excessive.

Ill try to take better pictures in the morning as im sure there will be more of it. None of the corals seem bothered, they just have long brown stringy stuff hanging off of them until I use the turkey baster to suck it up

That's What I do. Or swirl water around, skimmer will take care of it.
