will my prize zoos be overgrown by clove coral

[atxryan]

I have a zoo rock that is touching my colves. which will overgrow the other?

 

[pondy]

depends, I have some that have grown together.

Cloves will smother everything. Carefully kalk them or else...

 

[Scythanith]

Yes they will, kalk paste them!

 

[atxryan]

how should I kill them? they are on a rock that cannot be removed

 

[atxryan]

I thought that zoo's were crazy poisonious

 

[Pufferpunk]

I believe the chosen method has been posted twice here.

 

[atxryan]

hey punk, or any other constructive posters, how do I apply kalk paste to my fixed rock?? Will it raise my ph?

 

[Pufferpunk]

Same way you kalk aptasia. Turn off your flow, make a kalk paste thin enough to squirt thru a large syringe or small basting-type instrument. Leave on for an hour, before you turn the flow back on. (Hint: Feed all your corals too, while the flow is off.) By tomorrow, they should be dead enough to peel off with tweezers. You'll have to do this again to kill all of it or they will come back.

Thanks!! Do you think I can only kill a portion of the colves. I kinda like them but dont want them to overgrow my tank

 

[Pufferpunk]

I keep a section way in the back alone. The rest of the tank gets kalked.
