I have a small brown looking bump on my eagle eye zoas. They are not looking to good at the moment. Can anyone tell me what this is? I just dipped them. Here is a pick:

Is it possible to get a macro shot, this would help greatly.

I presume you mean those brown lumps on the ones 2nd and 3rd on the right?

Hard to get any scale, looks like theres fungus or something on the 2nd from the right, and a baby snail? or something on the 3nd, hard to tell on that pic.

They're not bumps, that is the oral slit ( mouth ) of the polyp being pinched. Looking at the polyp on the far right, you can see that the disc color is yellow with maybe some dark purple in it as well. I don't know what an Eagle Eye looks like, but something is seriously irritating this polyp parameters wise.

Is this what they looked like before the dip or afterwards?

What transpired in your tank just before this happened?

List everything you did just before this happened including additives, water changes etc. Whatever you do, please do not dip it again in that condition.

Sorry to see this happen my friend.

I would guess they will be discolored even if you do get them back. Do you have any other Zoo's in your tank ???
