I have a 14 gallon BioCube that I'm going to be tearing down and moving the livestock into a new 180 gallon aquarium that I built. The new tank is cycled and is ready for livestock transfer. I have a Zoa colony that is has a lot of GHA on it. I wasn't able to completely get rid of it in my BC14. Am I taking a risk moving those corals to my new tank with the GHA on them or do you think the GHA will starve and die? The reason it was a problem in my BC14 is because admittedly, it was overstocked.

Should I put the corals somewhere else first before I move them into the new tank to let the GHA die off or do you think it will just die off in the new tank due to lack of nutrients?

Set up an ATS on your 180 system, problem solved!

Recently saw a thread about eradicating GHA with Fluconazole. I've never tried (never had GHA) but it seems you have the condition to give it a try and mitigate a future issue.
I believe the title was something like: the next big thing after skimmer...
