    It's the dark ones that eat zoas, the white ones are fine. If in doubt, throw em in your sump!

    thanks for the input MyNemesis its good to hear you had luck with them in the same tank i think i want a few on the sandbed upfront and then some on the rocks mid-level so i guess ill be my own lil zoas experiment. So these guys are gonna munch on them hun.... I dont have a sump i guess i could bring them back to the LFS lol

    Well the process has already started I have a feeling this will become a headache, and I'm kind of upset the LFS dude did that but oh well on a posstive note I get my order today I'm super excited. What's your thoughts on the dip process? I have heard of a freshwater dip and a hydrogen proxide dip. These are for killing parasites right? I'm gonna do some research but figured i would ask

    I personally use CoralRx for the removal of parasites. Works great! As for the lil star's already in your tank...pick em out and toss them in the garbage. Do not feel bad because you'll feel worse if they really take hold in your tank.
    As for the info you got from the LFS...that's a dang shame! Sadly though not uncommon. Just ask us first

    thanks lesson learned there but they were fun to watch for the past year anyways... Im up to 6 removed now and none spotted today. As for my order it came in last night I drip acclimated everyone for a few hours then put them in but the zoa frag I let drip over night then this morning did a quick H202 dip, no critters could be seen runny off so Im crossing my fingers they were all clean. got them sitting in the tank now.
