Folks, if you've recently upgraded or renewed your annual club membership but it's still not active, please reach out to the BOD or a moderator. The PayPal system has a slight bug which it doesn't allow it to activate the account on it's own.
Was gonna put this in zoo forum but would rather have a larger look at this.
Back ground, Treating these zoos for a bad case of Cyno. Treatments are working, but, they are " secreting large amounts of red stuff from their mouths that can extend 3-4 inches in length. NEVER SEEN THIS BEFORE. They...
Purchased this from Trop. $15.00 with their 25% off extended sale. Not a fresh frag, fully healed and growing on the edges. Scroll Coral? Any feedback on care is appreciated.

I pride myself on having a parasite free system. Recently, I took in a few frags that may have had zoa nudis, anyway, I saw one and proceeded to dip the suspected Zoas. Ok, I confirmed 6 Nudis, not good. Immediately I treated the whole system with saifert flatworm exit at the recommended 4 times...
Well I do believe that contacting me is not a cure for this and that further feedback from our members could be very informative.
I can appreaciat that this may seem to be a Miner emergency to our Mods but closing this thread seemed, strong, This is a newbee that needs help.

Found this on a Zoo colony from Trop, I assumed that it was just part of the rock then I noticed lashes coming out. I put it on a frag plug for now with rock still attached, its the light circle with the Eagle eye zoo. Assuming a Plate Coral?
I needed a place to park my shrooms so with parts hanging around I set this up on my kitchen counter. 20 long, Compact PC lights, 2 power heads and a basic hang on whisper filter. It works, the filter was running on my Rock cycling tank. Alot of these softy's seem to like PC lights over T-5s...
Update of my 40 Frag Tank, T-5 Lighting, 4 powerheads and hooked up to my Main Display in a overflow loop taking advantage of the Main tanks Live Rock, sump, skimmer and cheato. This tank was taken down a few weeks ago for polishing and since the Main display tank basically runs this tank it did...
Thanks to members and a outside growout tank I have a lot of Cheato (CHAETOMORPHA)
That I need to give away.
Also collected Codium, about 40 pieces today, I have had some in my frag tank over a month and its doing well and looks nice.
And Fucus, this is yellow and is doing well under T-5...
My 40 breeder frag tank, used, had deep scratches and was fogged up, bad enough that you could not see anything clearly thru the Plexiglas. Replacing it was not really a option due to cost. And the tank was up and running, fully stocked and tied into the main system in a over flow loop.
Well I...
Red Lash Steel Blues.
One of the hardest to frag, difficult to attach, but then a strong grower, also has a eagle eye morph, I only have 4 heads of that. The line of fuzzys on the right side are the Yellow Fuji Leathers fraged last winter.

Last year I found 3 baby cottontail rabbits. Thing was this was inside a building that I worked, sitting in the hall way. No clue how they got in there! They seemed too small to be separated from the mother who was no where to be found. OK now I have pets. I put then in 5 gal tank and finally...
Treating a frag that was totally closed up, 2 polyps, white, basically melting away.
During dips I rubbed off what seemed to be a dead layer of outer skin and they started to open. Still no color. Now I checked and 4 new polyps have grown. Should be dead?
Anyone see this before?

A few pics of some of the zoos that im placing in my display tank.
Oranges, came with a colony of Kedds Redds

Kedds Redds with stray Greens
Peach Eyes under antinics
Pink Panthers and Red Lashes under Antinics
Not opened fully yet, pics are not that good, wild collected, As the friend that told me to purchase them said "these are F#%king Insane"! Neon Green, Very Bright, 25 polyps total. really COOL! 8)
Wild Collected Common Periwinkle (Littorina littorea)
I have been experimenting with them as part of my reef clean up crew for about a year and the results have been positive. Survival rate is very good. They have not bothered or fed on any reef inhabitants, pure vegetarian. I have seen no...
My Alk has always been a bit high, any common reason that would cause that I should be looking at? All other params are good. Alk. 3.89meq at Cal 420 ppm, should be around 3.45 meq.
