Weetabix7 Posted October 3, 2007 Share Posted October 3, 2007 Shrimp dudes are pods, good guys. Your zoas have zoa pox, you need to treat them with Furan-2. Go to www.zoaid.com for info on the disease and treatment. Link to comment

I don't know about the white spots on the zoas. They don't look too healthy though. I had a similar thing a long time ago and just ended up fragging the healthy ones and dumping the rest. The bottom critter is a pod. Not positive but I think amphipod? They're very good for your tank. They'll eat scraps plus if you have fish, especially a mandarin goby, they'll feast on these critters.

adam1121 Posted October 3, 2007 Share Posted October 3, 2007 The zoa pox need to be treated ASAP!!! I had a colony get it and then i thought it would cure itself....it spread. Either get it out or start treating it now. Link to comment
twozeroNano Posted October 3, 2007 Author Share Posted October 3, 2007 Got it... i'll probably just quarantine them in another tank.. Anyone know what causes this zoa pox? I had this zoa pretty high up in my tank probably alittle too close to my 150W MH. Link to comment

BibleSue Posted October 3, 2007 Share Posted October 3, 2007 That treatment really works! Don't waste time. It will spread!!! Link to comment
adam1121 Posted October 3, 2007 Share Posted October 3, 2007 Agreed, i was able to stop it as well. But i lost a few colonies in the process as it spread really fast and i didn't cure fast enough Link to comment
