Often called zoas, zoa polyps, or zoanthids, saltwater zoanthid corals are small beautiful corals with mixed colors including red, orange, yellow, pink and blue. There are plenty of variations in zoanthids. There's a larger version of zoanthids called Palythoa. Zoanthid & Palythoa Corals grow in sheets across rock and other substrate in the Saltwater Aquarium. Highly varied in color and pattern, zoas are one of the most sought after corals for many aquarists. The majority of zoanthid are extremely hardy and the perfect corals for the beginner reef aquarist. Zoanthid polyps feed on the symbiotic algae in there cells. They create the symbiotic algae through light. By providing polyps a moderate to strong light, the symbiotic algae is created and will keep the zoanthid coral well fed. The addition of reef additives like: calcium, strontium, iodine and trace elements along with occasional feeding's of micro-plankton and similar foodstuffs provides for the best possible growth rate. |
