Agreed. Not too sure what it is but I would suggest trying to get it off. Take a container of tank water big enough for it to fit in and use a turkey Baster or similar to try and blow whatever it is off. If this doesn’t work a dip may be in order. Something like revive would be a good start if that doesn’t work maybe step it up to a 50 50 tank water to peroxide dip.

If that is sand, that is a lot of sand. Palythoa take up sand and other small particles to build their structure. Zoas do not do this.

Well I'm not sure what's happening. But after reading the thread and looking at the post to pick about zoa pox, I think you're right it is zoa pox. But I don't know anything about it or how to fix it. If I come up on something quickly I'll try and post it.
