My zoa's look sick and they dont open up. I replaced my lighting cause i though thats what it would be but its been 2 days. My other couple zoas outside that group are ok and my mushrooms are ok. Can aiptasia kill them?? And if i use aiptasia control on the ones close to the coral will it hurt the zoas? kinda agervating cause these guys allwasy looked great

I have had my zoas close up for a few days for some unknown reason and then they will open up again and be fine not sure what causes it. Aiptasia will irritate them and cause them to close up, you can treat them with Joe's Juice but make sure all of the zoas are closed up before you do because if they ingest the joe's juice it will kill them.

ok its hard to explaine. underneath them were they are all connected together, it seems like its not as thick as it use to be when they closed up. there color is off too and they are very white. Any idea's the pic isnt that good.
