Zoanthus spp. (Kedd’s Red) is a captivating soft coral frag known for its rich red coloration, making it a popular choice for marine reef aquariums. This tank-bred frag is sustainably cultured, ensuring healthy growth and vibrant colours while supporting responsible aquaculture practices.
Care Level: Suitable for hobbyists with some experience in coral husbandry. This species benefits from stable water parameters and moderate care.
Lighting Requirements: Moderate lighting is ideal. LED or T5 lighting systems that provide balanced PAR levels will help maintain its vivid colouration without causing bleaching.
Water Flow: Moderate water flow is recommended to keep the coral healthy, promoting polyp extension and preventing detritus accumulation.
Placement: Place the frag in a location with moderate light and flow, avoiding direct strong currents or intense light that may stress the coral. Ensure adequate spacing from neighbouring corals to prevent aggression or overgrowth.
Diet: Zoanthus spp. primarily rely on photosynthesis via their symbiotic zooxanthellae but will benefit from occasional feeding of fine particulate foods such as phytoplankton or coral-specific liquid supplements.
Reef Compatibility: Yes, with adequate spacing. This coral is generally reef safe but can produce toxins (palitoxins), so handle with care and avoid placing too close to sensitive species.
Additional Notes: Maintain stable water parameters with regular testing and water changes. Avoid sudden changes in lighting or flow to reduce stress. Frag size allows for easy placement and acclimation in most reef tanks.
