I have this piece of Zoa for a month or so. Initially polyps opened fully forming a ball but I see that it's slowly getting smaller. So I dosed aquavitro fuel and can see the mat started to pop out new polyps which I think is a good thing, but all the polyps which used to be big became smaller. I can hardly keep zoas except palys. Hence, hold off buying nice zoas for now.

Yeah bro I remembered something now. Check for nudibranch. I remembered my colony of zoas were behaving like yours until i took a closer look and found damn nudibranches. They camouflage really well. I dipped mine in ice cold plain freshwater and saw the nudibranches fall off and there were lots of them. They must have laid eggs and i bought yellow wrasse to finish the rest of them and the problem never came back.

As what I saw on youtube, there is this marine distributor overseas that only sell softies greatly advise on using freshwater. As zoas will close their polyps so it wont harm the zoas. Anything that are attached to them will slowly die out.
