Looks like pods to me but I don't know really. I have seen them in my tank as well

 

[Arnaldo24]

I was thinking the same. But i see them on top of a few polyps and they are either close or melt.

Nope

But anyways if you think that they are killing your zoas then you have to
Dip them all to revive or coral Rx.

[Arnaldo24]

Yes they are So this are some species of pods??

 

[Widdy]

I can't be certain. Came across a few threads with people experiencing something similar. Not sure if they're eating zoas, or it's just irritating them to a point of them just dying/melting.

I think thats whats happening. Irritation. I just install my frag tank n got no fish there so mayb they are reproducing too fast?? And need some kind of pods eating fish?? Mandarin or a wrasse??

 

[Widdy]

They might be too big for a Mandarin... perhaps a Coris wrasse?

 

[Arnaldo24]

I was thinking a coris too. I got 1 on my DT unfortunately is impossible to catch. I will try n get 1 over the weekend.
If any1 have 1 for sale pm me

Found same nudis on polyps in my sis in law tank. I can say I definitely took 2 off of 2 seperate zoos. I can also say tons of zoos that were perfect are gone. Unfortunately I'm not there enough to know for sure but imo it's them.

Those first 3 pics are too hard to tell. The other pics look like pods. I wouldn't worry if they look anything like the last two pics you posted.
