I have these light green zooanthids taking over a majority of my tank. 2 days ago I pulled, tore and scrubbed a good size area where they were growing on my base rock. I then followed up with a 20g water change on mt 120g system. The next day my Tri-color Birds next had RTN and the following day it was a complete skeleton. Now, last night, I'm getting RTN on my Pink Birds Nest and this morning I noticed one of my Pocci's is dieing off as well. All my parameters are in normal ranges. So can Palytoxin effect SPS? Or should I be looking some where else for the cause?

Most definitely.
Read of people just simply moving zoas around in their tank and causing RTN. Run, (or change out) some carbon.

Agreed, and a water change or two would not hurt!

Another water change and get fresh carbon...OK. Thanks.
