I bought some pretty purple with silver center zoanthus on Sunday at Fin-Addict. I have been watching them closely and have not yet mounted them. They are in a containment basket (plastic with holes) in my aquarium. Here is the strange part...

I come home today and they are spewing something from their mouth's. It almost looks like... well... fish poop is coming out of them! Whats going on here?

I tested my water parameters and they are good (amm=0, trite=0, trate=10 and ph=8.2). I am not dosing any kalk (havent't for the past two weeks). Can someone tell me what is happening, why and how I can avoid this? Also, are they destined to die?

Please help!
