New zoas. Do you think they'll make it?

[Ventralis321]

I recieved these zoas today but they don't look healthy. I know the pics are hard to tell but do you think they will come back? One frags looks ok but the others look kinda of clearish and haven't even come close to opening up. One of them is secreting brown stuff. And the last one was smash up pretty bad against the bag. Is there anything I can do to save them?

leave them alone and they should do fine. They just look stressed.

The first pic on the left looks like it might make it. But the others look like there gonners.

Once they start turning clear like that, there pretty much on there way out.

Try to keep the them away from crabs and snails. If they get a wiff of them dying theyll finish them off quick.

Problems I've had with new zoo frags is if the the polyps are very small, particularly if there are just 2 or 3.

Pics 2 and 3. Are those pox on the zoos or just sand debris?

Just leave them alone, place them on a rack where other critters can't bother them and they'll be good.

Brown excretion is just crap coming out.
