I had one very large zoo eater which I just lived with as my tank was a SPS tank and the zoos I did have were ugly.

missed that one, but there are a couple different ones that eat zoos I would believe, as the one I had didn't look like a fireworm or the one you mentioned above. I think it was rarely seen as zoos didn't used to be that populor but now that they are I think we will see more and more zoo preditors.

Snapped some photos on my phone of a few more removed from the zoa tank (Have been constantly hand picking the rocks). Ended up grabbing the big one while flipping a rock over so my hand is pretty ****ed off now.



These are survivors after the dip, 2 nights of staking the zoas out and using a home made trap.
