and i would give em a fresh water dip before you put them into you put them into your tank to kill any nudibranches that are on them

I don't want to be the voice of negativity... In my experience, when zoos don't open when added to the tank they probably won't open at all. In other cases, I've had new zoos that start to open back up while still floating in the bag, and they've done great. I've only experienced those two ends of the spectrum.

can't really tell. Maybe a type of macroalgae?

 

[cjworkman]

I have lots of that. I always thought it was just a type of coraline algae.
It tends to grow in the more shaded areas of the tank.
Looks nice when all your rocks are covered and mixes with the lighter blues, purples and pinks of coraline that are on the brighter sections of rock.
