Reverse space monsters

[Steve rowland]

Newbie question
My reverse space monsters have gone mad !! My question is how easy are they to remove ? Can they just be pulled off the rock or do I have to remove the whole rock ?
Are they very toxic ?
Thankyou in advance

I bit the bullet and just plucked them from the rock,kept them submerged, bagged them and happy days no more in my tank .

What do you mean you plucked them?

they are toxic, just use caution, wear gloves and glasses. I would get them to retract first then try to remove with tweezers. I would also wash my hands really good, shower and change clothes after lol.

I wore gloves and justst pulled them off the rock they were on, once they start to come they do in big clusters , I put them in a breeding trap until I'd got them all then bagged them , they were never exposed to airfor a second . Ofcourse they contain palytoxin but low levels compared to other zoa.
Gloves, ventilation, and wash hands after. Changed all activated carbon to soak up any toxin. I just bit the bullet and removed.

Still here a month down the line, hope it's not a delayed reaction

You feel ok? Remember if you get Paly spit on you the first thing you are supposed to do is Stop, Drop, and Roll. Or is that just for fire? If it is good enough for fire, it is good enough for Paly toxin.

Hope you pull through. Check back in a month or so more to make sure you haven't become sick or turned into some sort of super hero.
