Bribo I got a q for you, what would cause my zoas to close like this? My tank was running a bit hot at 86...ImageUploadedByAquarium Advice1404857934.282288.jpg

My guess would be the temp with out knowing params. Anything above 82 can bother/harm corals
 
That aiptasia could be bugging them too

Okay thanks guys, my stupid biocube runs hot and when I put the other lights on it runs hot. The 10,000k lights are fine with temps. I'll cut that aiptasia off

oh yeah, the aptaisa I had was right i the middle of my colony and it was not happy. Stayed close the whole time till i managed to get it out.
 
Don't cut it off. You need to inject it with aiptasia x or joes juice. Cutting it will create more

Okay I'll have to find some of that, would it make a difference if I took it out of the tank and pulled it off?

No you can do that if it is not to much of a hassle. Just scrub it off in a separate bucket.

Yeah I imagine I'll have to remove a bunch of rocks once that time comes. But I'll jump that hurdle when I come to it.
