yup i would think about doing a peroxide dip!!! works real well and not harmful to zoas/palys!!! Revive will not kill zoa eating nudibranch, and you will notice that your zoas skirts will look chewed, main sign of a ZENB and most of the time they will take on the color of the skirt they eat. Some say that Yellow (not so coris) wrasse will pick them off. But good luck my rastas are my favorite, and even more then my Utter Chaos! but yeah try peroxide dip if signs of infection/disease/algae/bacteria/pests and for the poison I would run Chemipure Elite!!!

Actually the Revive dip handled it. I moved them all to QT afterwards and haven't had an issue since. those bastards were fat by the time I got to them.

BTW, maybe you're right, Revive may not kill them but it definitely stunned them at least enough for them to come off the frags. No nudis since!

Well since you guys brought this thread back up, UPDATE!!!!!

I dipped ALL my Zoas and Polyps in Lugals Iodine dip... And as I said before all my Zoas were closed and turning flat instead of being a bubbly circle. Since then they ALL have opened back up, even the hardcore "dead" opened (Rasta!). So I got a my Rasta back. The colors are still a little faded but are coming back. All is well in my tank again, except the fact that I can never keep any type of SPS...
