Little ones look like zoos and the big ones like palys.

I have some of those same Palys that came on live rock I purchased from another reefer but I have no idea what name they might be reffered to as.

Big ones are palys and small are zoos. Handle with care very poisonous.

Holy crap, I had no idea they were toxic. I'm always handling my zoo's. I came across this article after seeing your post Wayne I won't be touching without gloves anymore, YIKES!! Okay so what else should I worry about.

Just handle zoos/palys with care and it should all be fine. Gloves never hurt though..

I cant see the pics at all but from the post i guess they are zoas and you never knew they were toxic. people tend to be fine just never let your animals near them.
