So I picked all the poor zoos off the rock and left the aiptasia behind. I used a sculpting tool, much like you would find at a dentist's office. Got a couple strands of 6 or so zoos and a few more of 2 or 3. I have attached them to various shells and shards with elastics. Worried about how many I may have harmed, saw a lot of slimy, brown ooze that I don't think should be on the outside of the zoos. How tough are these guys? If all goes well I may have some frags to trade in a few months.

Zookeeper Bob, what do you think of my methods? Heard you have a few kinds of zoos available. I would love to get some and check out what a few mature colonies look like, maybe get some tips as well.

Thanks for the advice from everyone. I am starting to see why there is so much interest in corals.
