Hey i just got in a zoa from tritonsgarden..........i ordered 3 zoas.....2 are fine.....1 colony that came in right now is looking weird....some polyps look normal...but the majority of the polyps look wrinkled and looks like it has bubbles under the zoa skin.......its hard to explain......it just looks like multipe air pockets or bubbles is under the zoas skin....Does anyone know what the heck this is or why its doing it.......i would show a picture but my mom is out of the country with it at the moment..........

Your polyps are stressed from shipping. My armor of gods did this to me awhile back. IDK why, but these are hard for me to keep. I know exactly what your talking about with the shriveledness and air bubbles. The polyps don't look plump like they should. When my AOG's did this, I shaded them a and gave them good flow. It worked for me. My AOG's look like they are making a comeback.

zoa do that when they ship bad or the condition isn't rigth. try some iodine dip 5-10 minutes every days and see if it recover. very little of the time you can still try to save them. most of the time they will melt with a week or week and a half.
