I am away from my tank right now for almost two weeks now. My roomate was suppose to be looking over my tank, and my girlfriend went over there to check on it. She state my Zoas had some kind of brown/white fuzzy stuff covering the entire colony????? :anxious :cryinga: Is anyone familiar with this? She stated they are all closed with the fuzzy stuff on them. She also stated my other colony is partially closed to with a little fuzzy stuff on them. Please help...

Could it be algae? I'll delete this post cause its in the wrong area I just need help.

With out picts it is hard to say...but very well could be is there an extra powerhead that she could place in to the tank and aim at them .......if not a turkey baster to blow them off?
do you have some extra water that she could do a partial change?
right now with out pics it is extremly hard to say but I would add an addtional power head and try to clear it from the zoas ....if it is brown jelly disease then there is little that can be done .Keep us posted

Sadie... She took the turkey paster and blew it off put had to do it more than once. I leave the light on for about 11 hours a day.... probably a little to much. I'm hoping its algae. I have a Rio 50 in there and a fuge shold there be more current? Thanks

That may help but I am not sure , a small power head would help in that you dont have to continually blow it off you would want a med to hi flow just blowing atop them or so to knock that stuff off perhaps she could move the rio to blow over it so you wont need an addtional PH
I would back the lighting down to 8or 9 hours for now
