Hey there, noob here.

I purchased a zoa colony rock a month ago, and there are a few things on it that are def not zoas. Two of these relocated elsewhere in the tank (one went into the overflow, the other is on an adjacent rock). I can't identify these via web search.

Any ideas what they are? If a pest, how can I blast these off the rock safely?

Thanks!

They're aggravating and stingy the zoas...kill them with fire!!! That's what I would do anyway...remove the rock and scrape them off...rinse in clean saltwater and return to tank.
