    i have tons of cerith snails in my tank and they seem to bother my zoas alot. Anyone else notice this happening, some of them arent open much at all, cuz there is always a snail by it?

    it looks like there could be some dark red algae on them. I thought this was coraline algae in the early stages? NOT SURE they are not looking so hot, ill get a pic and post it asap
