tiny booger killed my red hornet colony

[Mattl22]

Looks alot like the green pociloporas that's started popping up all over my tank when I had a colony but don't think it could kill zoa

Here is the before picture with the nice frag back then with Red hornets covering the plug. Thats how small that thing was back then almost a micro zoa size, now its like almost half inch in size.

$260 for the whole year ?
reef additives / water / lighting / reef food etc. or those polyps are that much expensive?

she spent 260$ on the whole frag last year when we got them . That little thing killed it. :/ I have to rip up that plug tomorrow and save the last 2 polyps that are on it and hopefully get them to do better. Cause i liked those red hornets.

I have hornets, but since they're so expensive I don't think they're RED HORNETS may be purple hornets
