i could never get these guys to grow in my old system. I was running zeovit. So my guess is low nutrient with strong light would get rid of them.

Funny you say that, they really started spreading once I got my nutrients down and added more lighting.... Lol

Take out rocks and scrub them with peroxide.... That seems to kill stuff but I guess you need to do that in a seperate tank or frag what Zoas you can and start with new rock, I always grew them on a seperate rock on its own. GL bro!

Try doing patches of it with Kalkwasser a thick paste

When I went to bio-pellets the blue cloves started to die back, before they were everywhere, now you would be lucky to spot any. Unfortunately your zoas probably won't like bio-pellets either. I didn't mind the blue cloves to be honest.
