Critters eating my zoos.

[snatchbak]

I've been losing zoo colonys left and right that were doing great. So, I decided to dip them and I've been finding little nudibranch looking creatures all over. Anyone have any info I would appreciate. What could these be, besides horrible hitchhikers....

Did you add anything recently? If the colonies were doing great but are not being eaten, what's changed?

I had something similiar happen in my tank. Added 4 zoo frags that did great for about a month, then began to deteriorate and I had no idea why.

Then I accidently knocked a fRag (haha... I forgot one letter and the word came out ***) over and found these little guys on them.

I FW dipped the frags, and stuck them in QT for a couple weeks to see if anymore popped off.
