Never heard of it before. Learnt something new!
Once you've seen marine fish and coral in the sea it doesn't seem right in a small tank, so best to leave it in the sea and avoid dying of palytoxins.

this stories make the news every few months, if you have a tank you know that and your probably more worried out the other inverts biting you or leaving a spine under your skin
from the look of their tank they only wanted the finding nemo theme, especially since they did not realise what corals are.the slow pond build thread

There was a case a few years ago where a guy was fragging his palys and either lost his eye or was blinded by the toxins in them.

I used to keep marine fish and corals, I used to propagate zoa’s and sell them. Yes there is a risk of getting palytoxin but if you do it safely and use the correct protection then it’s pretty safe. Quite a nice little earner too haha.

It’s not the first time.
I heard that the owner wanted the rock the coral was on so was boiling the rock to kill the coral, It’s worrying that these people walk amongst us.
