[b3ja]

Zoa eating spiders?

 

[Naiad]

That is not a starfish!

 

[Naiad]

Something eating spiders. They were on my lps corals. Idk if that was just chance or if they were responsible for my lps deaths.

Looks like a brittle star , but if not , a six line wrasse will take care of them

 

[Naiad]

I will try to figure out how to upload a video. They swim and walk so I know they are not star fish.

 

[McMullen]

Looks like zoa spider! Wish I had a few to rid my tank of palythoas!!

 

[Naiad]

Will revive kill them?

 

[Sabellafella]

Will revive kill them?

Are they thick and somehwat flat? Or do they look like a bunch of braching legs?

Looks like Micro Brittle Stars. If they are, they're part of a good cuc. If zoa spiders, then take out your zoas and dip them according to the directions of your product.

Hopefully this works

Looks like a spider to me. Legs and body look thin to be a zoanthid spider. Looks like acro spider but I'm sure there are ones that eat LPS too. I defeated zoa spiders by manual removal. Took a few weeks of night hunting. Not sure that will work for these guys though.

haven't came across anything like that yet. That definitely looks like some sort of spider to me.

What was the best way to remove. I got 2 out of the three I saw with a turkey baster. I still plan to dip in case there is more going on with the acan. Do you think revive will cut it?

 

[Second Shot]

I used long tweezers. Dips would probably work on these. Zoa spiders were a bit different because they get into the Zoa itself and are protected from the dip so you can't kill them all.

Thank you. I recently added a yellow coris wrasse to the tank so let's hope he pulls his weight as well. At least I have an idea why some of my lps may have just up and died.
