melting zoos

[suz4702]

I have a 14 gallon nano tank. It has been set up for over a year. One of my first purchases was a zoo(Ring of Fire). Ring of Fire is doing well and spreading. About 6 months ago I bought another zoo. The rock was covered. They have "melted". Why is this happening? :dontknow: Everything else seems to be healthy (hammer, mushrooms, anemone). Help!!!!!!

Hi Susan, a couple questions for you.

Were you able to observe the coral before and after the initial 'melting' ?

Were you able to check for possible predators that consume your zoos ? bugs, etc.

Water parameters ?

from the pix it looks like zoo pox.

Might want to read this and make sure

It was beautiful up until a couple of months ago. Since then it has been in a steady decline.

I have not noticed any predators. If there were any, then I think they may have attacked my other zoo. My anemone did attach to the same rock for awhile.

My water parameters are all within range.

I would go ahead and dip the colony you never know (Revive)

do you see white spots on the polyps?

I have not noticed any white dots. I did dip them as someone else suggested. Wish me luck!
