zoa spiders

[bassist6108]

I found some zoa spiders on some new purchases I made this weekend. I immediately picked off all the spiders I could see, and placed the pieces in quarantine. How long will they need to remain in quarantine? Is there any more effective way of ridding the pieces of these pests, other than waiting to see adults and killing them?

try doing a freshwater dip...mix a batch of fresh ro/di water, adjust pH, adjust temp, and dip them and see if anything falls off. you can add them to the tank when they are all gone...just b/c they are in quarantine doesn't mean the spiders will die. maybe get a fish like a wrasse.
