Zoo Problem

I added a frag of pink zoos 6 days ago. They opened right up, and have been looking great. When I got home yesterday, all but one was completely closed and one of the closed ones had brown stuff (plankton?) coming out of it. There were isopods crawling all over the colony.

I though perhaps it was irritated by the pods. But this morning they looked worse - still closed, and skinny. I didn't have the digital camera, but used my cell phone. I figure lousy pics are better than no pics.

Thanks for any help - it'll be ashame to lose these...or have something spread to the other zoos in the tank.

lugols dip would help. the brown stuff is probably a brown jelly infection. watch our for other colonies as it does spread. try the dip and wait.
