Paly Falling Apart

[Kevin Tran]

Any idea why this paly falling apart like this?

Not sure what you mean by falling apart? Zoa and Palys are single head polyps that split and move. Sometimes they apear like a carpet with polyps, but typically there is visible rock between the polyps when they are closed up. It looks like a typical zoa frag to me.

Yeah i dont see falling apart. I see what looks like irritated zoas IMO. Any pests? Have u tried a dip? What are you params? Lighting?

My water is very good, everything is in range. Kh, 8.0, call, 470, and mag.1470 ppm. I this colony for 6 month now, and I don't how I could get pest. I haven't buy zoa or paly for a long time now. The colony is sitting on a small puck, could it be out grown and separate by it self?

They don't close for no reason, something not right or did you feed anything

grab your flash light and see if you see anything crawling on them

I feed my fish pallet soak in garlic guard and metrodazole, lost a couple fish but ich is gone. While feeding some pallets does fall on to the colony

Will do that, but I always sleep while light is out lol

give em a squirt with a turkey baster if detritus builds up on them they may need more flow..... my gsp and zoos in the low flow areas will close and start to melt if i dont blow them off every couple days and when they grow they will close up a bit then all a sudden babies appearing everywhere wouldnt worry too much unless they start to wither away... whats your iodide at i keep mine elevated a touch it helps alot for z and p
