Not new info regarding the dangers of palytoxins... BUT! Being that this is being reported outside of typical hobby news AND they stated LFS's don't label corals as poisonous; If I owned a store I would start putting up a warning sign and buy at your own risk disclaimer! Wait until the attorneys get a hold of anyone who has been effected by a coral that was purchased at a store and the dangers weren't disclosed.

Yup. I boiled my coral in water and the fumes killed me. That was its intended use right ;(

I read his post and he was not even %100 sure there were zoas on the rocks he boiled. I know that they can be poisonous but I bet something else was the reason for their illness.
