What parameters?What’s going on with these Zoas. They started to take off growing off the frag plug. Now some heads look like they are withering away.

Are you experiencing dino or cyano?What’s going on with these Zoas. They started to take off growing off the frag plug. Now some heads look like they are withering away.

My zoas are all super happy and popping babies left and right and my phosphates are at 0.32ppmAre you experiencing dino or cyano?
If not, often too much white intensity or water flow will stress them.
Elevated nitrate and phosphate will be a cause as will high salinity.
Any fish you've seen nipping at them ?
His salt, water source and salinity will differ from yours. I have colonies and colonies at 0.11. It will differ tank to tank. These are just some of mineMy zoas are all super happy and popping babies left and right and my phosphates are at 0.32ppm
While not ruled out , none of those with spiders would be open as they not only reproduce quickly but imbed themselves into the zoa heads and leave them all often closed upDip if you can and check for zoa spiders. My bam bams were growing like crazy, then withered away. I dipped the rock and zoa spiders like crazy.
Stunning!!!His salt, water source and salinity will differ from yours. I have colonies and colonies at 0.11. It will differ tank to tank. These are just some of mine

This makes the most sense to me cause they are high up and I have two prime 16HDs and they are in a spot that gets high flow. My salinity stays in the 35, low 36 ppm area. Parameters are in check I can post numbers I wrote down when I get home. Plus all other corals are doing good. Mostly LPS and anemones. So I’m thinking how are the easiest I have going bad on me smh lol.Doing zoa for decades, things to watch again includes too much light and too much water flow, parameters suddenly changing. One tother thing to mention . if you are using NoPox or carbon dosing, I have found in some cases, that some of the zoas die or melt away. Not sure if it is due to the drop in nitrates or a rise in carbon levels.
Not dosing anything. And too much light and flow could be a issue. I mentioned in another comment they are high up in the middle of my scape.Doing zoa for decades, things to watch again includes too much light and too much water flow, parameters suddenly changing.

I could do this with the ones that are still on the frag plug. Some have grown onto rock so not sure how I could treat those.Dip if you can and check for zoa spiders. My bam bams were growing like crazy, then withered away. I dipped the rock and zoa spiders like crazy.
Wow beautiful. How long did it take to take off like this?His salt, water source and salinity will differ from yours. I have colonies and colonies at 0.11. It will differ tank to tank. These are just some of mine

These were acquired as colonies but growth has taken off quicklyWow beautiful. How long did it take to take off like this?
Best at mid-tank or lowerNot dosing anything. And too much light and flow could be a issue. I mentioned in another comment they are high up in the middle of my scape.
I can def move the ones still on the frag and glue them lower.Best at mid-tank or lower
