I'm coming up on 2 full weeks of QT havnt noticed anymore hanging around the zoas, and they are all open and looking happy.
I am going to do my third dip as well as a flat worm exit, then probably put them back in the DT. Any thoughts or concerns with adding them back in the display tank?
I am worried about getting a yellow wrasse I have berghia nudibranchs in my DT, as well as as sexy shrimp. So I might wait and see how they are in the DT before adding a yellow wrasse? Should I wait another week before adding the zoas again?

your right on schedule , so heres whats next:


get ready for your final dip, dip the flatworm exit first then the coral rx be sure to use a turkey baster to blast the polyps and mats , before placing them in your tank carefully inspect the coral and in between the polyps , look for eggs they are tiny and there cannot be any eggs on them going back in....by this time eggs should be completely removed anyways...right?? lol

adding a corris wrasse with shrimp is a big no no, although my harlequins were able to fight one off for an hour before i removed them lol


keep an eye on your polyps for the next while as nothing is ever guaranteed , but you should be safe at this point.


any new arrivals need to be dipped and inspected for pests and eggs, you should put any new zoas through the same qt you just did , it only takes a few eggs and you have a pest problem.

good job buddy
