All my Palys have these white spots on them. They don't seem to bother them. Any idea what it is?
I have several different colonies and types, and they're on all of them.

Are the colonies in a place where you can remove them from the tank? I had great success in dipping some affected zoas in Furan2. I also use it as a prophylactic during my acclimation and dipping process prior to adding any new zoas/palys into my tank. I found a link somewhere and will try to find it for you. Ace has used the method before as well.
