What's wrong with my zoas?

[feedmycorals]

Hi everyone
My green eye zoas and another (please ID if you know) do not appear to be as healthy as before. They used to open completely and bright in color..now the green one does not open much and got skinny..the second one is getting darker.
Thanks!

Try doing a coral rx dip or furan 2 dip. It worked on some of my zoanthids that were starting to melt. They came back brighter and recovered quick

Furan 2 is not something to use unless you have zoa pox. It can be harsh on zoas. If you dip use coral rx, rps all out , lugols , even a freshwater or h202 In last ditch effort will be ok

I would say your salinity is out of wack or something is eating them

How clean is the water. I find my zoas do
Better in dirtier water

So just want to give everyone an update: it has been 5 months and I notice that my dark color zoas (all brown, all blue) are doing great.

I decided to move the green eye zoas to another tank (55g) which it seems ok...but looks a lot skinnier than before when I first got it.

Thanks everyone!

Mine have been doing a little of this but I attribute it to added a watchman goby and he spits sand on them during the day, I moved half of them up onto the rockwork and of course I blow off the sand with a baster but I think that is what is making mine stretch and/or stay closed during the day.

Just in case I dipped most of them in Revive for 5min each and they look a little happier.

Good to hear. I guess I should deep my green zoas in coral RX again. Last time was like 2 months ago.
