Hard to really tell, what color do they glow when under blues?

I've got some of the bad ones too. Just be careful with all palys and maybe give those a bit more attention when dealing with them. I thought the most telling slide was the one that showed a handful of "maybe toxic" since they were never tested. I'd be willing to bet that there are quite a few in the hobby that have high levels of the toxins but just haven't been investigated. The solution is to be careful with all of them.

I have the Emerald grandis that showed as the maybe toxic Paly. I’ve fragged it several times with no incident, but it only takes 1.

FYI...I know a guy that cut some of the generic yellow polys in his tank....and, well a lot of stuff died

There are more than one, some vary seasonally in toxicity -

They look like Pandora’s under more white light. I have a bunch that look like that and a bunch that have a lot of gold specks in them.
