And don't forget to dip new frags! I learned the hard way with aiptasia hitchhikers. Now I quarantine everything for a week before it hits the display.

Absolutely. Bayer dip for 10 minutes, then rinse. Saved my tank from a flatworm outbreak last year.

One last thought—how's your nutrient load? Zoas can be weird about ultra-low nitrates. If you're running near-zero, try feeding them a bit more. They'll thank you.
