I’m just going to throw them and the zoas they are on out. I’ve lost about 10 polyps to them.

They look like some sort of Paly to me, but I wouldn't think they would aggressively kill Zoas since they are related, but I'm not sure. Unfortunately, your plan of throwing them out is probably your safest bet.

Yeah, when I got the frag there were maybe 4 of them on there buried in the middle of the colony. Slowly they are taking over. It’s been a couple months but they are choking out the zoas.
