Zoanthus spp. (Ultra Grade) Large are a stunning addition to any marine reef aquarium, prized for their vibrant colours and dynamic polyp movement. These soft corals belong to the genus Zoanthus, known for their hardy nature and adaptability, making them suitable for hobbyists with some experience.
Lighting: Moderate lighting is recommended to maintain optimal coloration and health. LED or T5 lighting systems that provide a balanced spectrum work well.
Water Flow: Moderate water flow is ideal to ensure the polyps receive sufficient nutrients while preventing detritus buildup. Avoid direct strong currents that may cause polyp retraction.
Placement: Place Zoanthus spp. in areas with moderate light and flow, ensuring adequate spacing from neighbouring corals to prevent aggression and overgrowth. They can be positioned on rockwork or substrate.
Care: These corals are relatively hardy but benefit from stable water parameters and regular water changes. Maintain temperature between 24-27°C, salinity at 1.023-1.025 SG, and stable pH around 8.1-8.4.
Compatibility: Zoanthus spp. are generally reef safe with adequate spacing. They coexist well with most reef inhabitants but avoid placing near aggressive corals.
Feeding: While primarily photosynthetic, occasional feeding with fine particulate foods or coral supplements can enhance growth and colour.
Adding Ultra Grade Zoanthus spp. to your reef tank introduces vibrant colour and lively movement, enhancing the overall aesthetic and biodiversity of your marine environment.
