I would pick the sponges out from the Zoas if they are receding.

tweezers should do the trick, grab on and give it a twist.

I would leave the sponges. I would rather have the sponges than the Zoas. You can always replace the Zoas; sponges are not so easy to replace.

touché... ill play it by ear and see how they do.. maybe they'll just move around and get used to each other. was just worried it was some sort of pest or disease. kinda new to this... any ideas why i took so long for these sponges to sprout up? i've had the frag for 2 months and just noticed them!
