When zoas close up they have pure whit circular spots about the size of a big pin head. There are between one to two dots on almost every head. Any ideas? I can't get my camera to zoom in and actually focus on the zoas but I will keep trying.

I have noticed the first spot a couple days ago a couple days ago. The only change to my tank recently is the upgrade from no protien skimmer to a aquatic life mini skimmer.

Since my little colony is growing on a large rock to I take the entire rock out of the tank to do the suggested dips on the furan 2 packet?
