Nice green skirts on those. I've found the green zoas I have do better towards the bottom by the way.

Cool. I actually like zoas alot too. But Im kinda dumbfounded by fragging. Not exactly sure how its done but it sounds confusing.

Pretty! I always love those greens. They shine nicely in a tank.

Looks like you coming down with a case of the zoa bug. I have had that for months. And just when I start to get better the paly bug comes down :(

Zoas grow as a crust over the rock or whatever. If you want to frag you can either cut them off the rock or an easier way is put little rock rubble around the area where they grow, they'll grow on the new rock and you can pull it out of the tank (or cut that rock out).

It's really not confusing when you see how they spread.

Nice start, animalman. I'm a fan of zoas / palys myself. I just wish I could get our rabbitfish to stop eating them! It's funny how they only eat the nice looking ones, while completely ignoring the not so pretty varieties. Soon enough they'll be out of the tank, then I'll start adding zoas back into the tank.

They are only bout 4-5 inches off the bottom. They seem to like it there. Been in the tank for bout 2weeks now.
