I have asterinas that chomp on zoas, it does not make me happy. I have done a lot of manual removal and adding the harlie in the 57g has really decimated their population in there. I can't put one in the 45g where the zoa eating ones are because we have an orange linkia in there that I do not...
Water changes with RODI and regular salt to get it down would be the best way. If you can't get access to those, some calcium dosing would help but be very very careful with that because you can swing it the other way too quickly and hurt your tank. I know this from experience.
So given we are doing more frequent water changes I finally took out the rodi unit and set it up. I needed a faucet adapter which I got today and we were off. Then things went quickly down hill. I setup everything and was running a few gallons through to clear it out. It was then I noticed...

You will easily be able to see them with eggs as there whole back "legs" area is covered in green eggs. They usually release...
Yeah the drive and killing the whole weekend kept me out. Also, with just switching firms I have had a severe lack of free time/sleep/fun. I could use a little more relaxed weekend. Also, I can't shoehorn any more corals into my 45g at this point.
