I have zoanthids in strong light and low light, high flow and low flow and they are all doing great. I feed all my corals either Reef Chili or Bene-Reef. I think zoas are pretty easy to keep and rather undemanding.
The ones under strong light and high flow (though they also did well under less light and flow before I moved them)... And these are under lower light and flow and have been doing very well too...

As long as the lighting is sufficient and your parameters are within reason zoanthids are actually pretty easy to keep. You might have to move them around a little until you find the right spot, but aside from that it's just a set it and forget it kind of coral. Sometimes they'll come in with pests, but these can be easily eradicated IME. Feeding is not really
necessary either. GL. http://www.advancedaquarist.com/2003/2/inverts http://www.wetwebmedia.com/ca/volume.../zoanthids.htm http://www.coralpedia.com/index.php?...&g2_itemId=384 Last edited by cloak; 04/07/2016 at 02:13 PM. |

Thanks. As has been mentioned they require very little care. You'll love them. There are so many colors available. I love zoas.
