What's Making This Zoo Sick

[charga]

I don't post on here but read a lot on here about different types of zoos and palys which is very easy to get attached to these beauties of the sea and the different varieties available. So my post is one of concern and something has affected one of my zoos. Does anyone here with the expertise identify what may be wrong and what I may do to cure the poor thing. If you were to ask me what kind it is, truthfully I forgot what the frag is but would want to care for it like it were a Tidalzone Aqua but could even be a Radioactive Dragon Eye. I picked up some beginner types to get my feet wet and now my boots are soaked. None the less I want to cure my zoo.............help, obviously it's the one in the middle of the pic. Everything else is doing fine. TIA

It looks like it's going to melt away. It will probably spew out brown fungus in a few days and melt away.

Ugh, that's a bummer, what to do so it don't spew, peroxide dip?

Nobody's figured out a way to stop it yet but try moving it to higher flow. Or try a dip.

I added 200 ml of RO water at 78 degrees, same as tank, to a clean measuring cup, then added 20ml of Hydrogen Peroxide. Dipped the zoanthid for approximately 5 to 8 minutes although after research I vaguely found an exact time but felt 10 minutes would be the max and 5 to 8 the minimum. The zoo is in a high flow area and will monitor it's progress. If I need to I'm may remove the section that appears to be in a melting stage using a scalpel. Thanx for the suggestion

This is my 1st attempt to cure a zoo and having an addiction to this coral I feel this will not be my last. Sooner or later I will have other situations I'll encounter so I better brush up on my research.

BTW has anyone written a book about the different varieties of zoas and palys' and the care as well as the diseases and pests that one will encounter? Seems Club Zoa would be a good start to learn.

Hi
I wonder what happened next. Could it be saved?
