Zoanthids Shrinking!!!??

It stopped using skimmer for 12 days and increased feeding a little.. still I don't see any progress.. I am sure there no zoa predators since there is no polyp loss...

I am having a similar issue, and I noticed that I have large amphipods hanging around my zoa after lights off. I've been sucking them out with a turkey baster when I can.

I am not 100% certain, but I think the larger ones might/can eat zoas.

I was having a similar problem with 2 different colonies of zoas, but only those two of many, the rest were fine. Someone mentioned possible chemical warfare so I tried adding some carbon and within a few days they all opened right up again.

I do have chemipure added .. hope that is good enough?

You can borrow my Alk, Cal and Mag test kits while you are waiting to get your test kits if you want to
