It seems my zoanthids have developed zoa pox. Now that Furan 2 seems to be impossible to find, I started treatment with nitrofurazone. Has anyone dealt with this recently?

So it seemed to have worked. I had other issues in the tank but I’m pretty sure it saved some zoanthids and the pox eventually went away. I treated as it was furan 2. Before I put the corals back in the tank I really rinsed them good. Because the medication seemed to be really concentrated. I think I was so fed up on the last dose that I put the corals in a bucket and sprayed them down with a hose until the water ran clean

get your temp in check,,pox is mainly associated with too many temp swings. I put a Rancho temp controller in and this pox problem went away
