Well, first pest ever

[OsiViper]

Well, I dip every coral I get and I have had this colony in my tank for about 2 months but I guess some eggs slipped in.

Got home today and saw something green climbing on the wall of my tank. It looked like a Zoanthid eating nudibrach. And sure enough i looked at my green zoa colony and it's got the ring of eggs on it. I was wondering why it had been closed more lately.

Had a few questions. First, which is better to kill the live nudi's, Bayer or CoralRX? Second I can try to manually remove some of the eggs by hand, but how long should I wait to dip again to kill recently hatched eggs before before they lay more?

Bayer is much easier on the zoas than CoralRX. You can dip them 2-3 time a week.

Killing them
affects your water as I have an easier time by using tweezers to remove them instead of adding chemicals that can affect other animals, bacteria etc.
