Nudibranch ZOA eater? Found this morning

[NJHC]

I was looking in my tank this morning and I noticed something a little fuzzy and out of place on one of my zoas. Can someone please tell me what this is. And if its reef safe? Thanks

Check your zoas for eggs.

 

[NJHC]

What do they look like ?

 

[Zukizuri]

Clusters of white eggs. Look at the sides of what zoas/paly you have

If you can pull the colonies I would dip them separately. I've been using the Bayer Advanced lately. Try it. There is a thread somewhere. 10mls of bayer to 4 oz of tank water. 5 minutes or so.

If you dont want to dip buy a wrasse. Yellow corris or six line. They will clean them up

I don't trust a wrasse to take care of zoa eating nudis they are too proficient, stealth and hide from the wrasses. If order to beat them you need to dip them once a week for 3 weeks to break the egg cycle

Same here. I love my yellow Corris but he didn't completely finish the job. Stay on top of any infestations. Can't really kill the eggs with just dip.
