My zoa colony has not been opening for about two weeks now.

Did a fresh ro water dip, didn't seem to help, I think a nudibranch came off it and a bunch of pods,

My fish are:

Blue tang
Clown trigger
Cream angel
Sail fin tang
Blue line tang
Have a bunch of hermits and snails tooImageUploadedByAquarium Advice1419197510.231275.jpgImageUploadedByAquarium Advice1419197543.897576.jpgImageUploadedByAquarium Advice1419197567.398002.jpgImageUploadedByAquarium Advice1419197591.588671.jpg
 
Biggest thing I see is that your dosing with out having quality tests to monitor the elements your dosing. First thing I would do is stop dosing, and I'd highly recommend a good test kit for the trace elements (not api)
