    I have a Xenia Pom Pom that is about three inches away from my Zoanthid and it has been shriverling up this past week. It wouldn't happen to be related to the Zoanthid colony would it?

    Doubtful. Xeniids are just annoying critters and do things sometimes for no seemingly known reasons.

    You could run carbon to be on the safe side

    Yep, I do that. I'll just have to watch it and possibly transplant it elsewhere in a few days unless it gets better.

    Make sure you use gloves.

    No worries, was referring to pom pom.
