Thread: Think I have zoa pox in my tanks.

    I did the Lugol's dip using RO/DI water. They still seem mad at me but time will tell if they come back around or not. The dip did have an immediate effect on some flat worms that were hanging out on my purple shroom, he's still mad too!

    Edit* I thought the Lugol's killed the flat worms but it in fact did not, they just shriveled up like the shroom.

    I have had this same type of experience.. in my tank it "killed off" an entire group of green zoas that were surrounded by orange zoas. The orange zoas were never affected. Interestingly enough, a month later, the zoas I thought had died began to come back. My whammin' watermelons are going through the same thing right now as well. I am of the mindset that you help them as much as possible (dips, cleaning with high flow) and hope for the best. Sometimes nature is very random.

    In my case Nate the culprit seems to be going for the better zoas and working its way down. My Dragon eyes never did come back.
