This or a tooth brush

@Jaz187 1y

I’m about to order that, it’ll be here Friday if I do.

I set mine on the sand bed and eventually the clean up crew will do its job

@Jaz187 1y

I may try that

@Jaz187 1y

Check my most recent post! I set them in the sand bed and after a few hours the difference is crazy!

@BrittsReef 1y

Are you able to remove the plug?

@Jaz187 1y

Sadly no. I have no way of getting it off

@BrittsReef 1y

I know you can spot treat with hydrogen peroxide, but I'm not sure of the exact instructions.

@Jaz187 1y

Right I ordered the flux rx. It’ll be here Friday. I need it anyway because of bryopsis algae

@Wiley795 1y

Take a super soft toothbrush and gently brush it off.

@Jaz187 1y

Wouldn’t that hurt the zoa? It’s growing like inbetween the heads. It’s also on just the plug too

@MaizeandBlue 277d

I don’t know that I would worry about this one as much as I’d be more worried about the whole tank. From what I see, you have a heavy amount of algae that needs to be addressed.
