Palytoxin

So I have a small colony of 4 Zoas that were falling of the plug and when I was putting them in epoxy gently I noticed a little bit of white substance comic off them, is this play toxin? And now that they are in the rank there is some brown stuff by there base and I'm worried about killing other inhabitants, I put some Arvin in the back portion of my tank and washed my hand thoroughly but could this kill my fish or was it so little they will be fine

It will most likely be fine, just do a water change.

Many corals will produce (or shed an existing) a slime coating when disturbed, this is not anything to worry about.
