Quote:
Zoanthids contain the highly toxic substance palytoxin. Palytoxin is the most toxic organic substance in the world, but there is an ongoing debate over the concentration of this toxin in these animals. However, even in small quantities, the toxin can be fatal should it be ingested or enter the blood stream. There is no known anti-toxin.
When propagating any type of Zoanthid in home aquaria, it is advisible to have a dedicated workstation and to thoroughly clean all equipment used, especially if any of the polyps should break open. These chemicals are the only thing that Zoanthids have to protect themselves from would be predators.
