Zoanthids – Zoanthus spp.
Zoanthids, known collectively as the Zoas, are among the most colorful and diverse soft corals in the reef aquarium hobby. Each polyp resembles a miniature flower, displaying an endless array of color combinations—from radiant neons and deep metallics to ultra-rare morphs like Rainbow Incinerators, Utter Chaos, and Rastas. Highly adaptive and visually striking, Zoanthids can form dense mats that blanket rockwork with vibrant color, making them a staple in both beginner and collector-level reef aquariums. Their resilience, growth rate, and breathtaking variety make them one of the most rewarding coral groups to cultivate.

Received the polyps in good condition. They’ve been thriving in my 50-gallon tank. The rainbow morphs are especially striking and add a dynamic look to the display.
