They say the first step is admitting you have a problem....so.... Hi, my name is Doug and Im a zoaholic.:biggrin: My addiction started off harmlessly enough, a few small frags....you know, the soft stuff... like orange and browns, then quickly I graduated to the hardcore stuff like, nuclear implosion radioactive end of the world death type zoas.:mrgreen: I started this thread so that I and others can talk about and share our problem. So if you too are a zoa addict, you are not alone, please feel free to post here and join the club.

I find myself quickly travelling down the same road as you. It's an easy addiction to fall prey to.

By the way...the zoas in pic 4 are amazing!!!

I too am an addict. I dont even have a tank to hold them in yet, but i dont care.
im nuts for all sorts of zoas and already have plans for a zoa garden in half or more of my tank.

omg sycanith i dont think ill be able to sleep tonight.

those zoas in pic five post 3 are simply amazing. and of course every time i see that nova colony it just looks awesome.

now i have to ask, where do you get all these amazing zoas?

also, expect me to come askin for frags sooner or later :lol:

Haahaa. Honestly most of my nice stuff comes from Bayside Corals here in Saskatoon and from Dave at Wickedfrags. I get a couple other randoms from Fragalot, Ultimatefrags, & fragfactory.

I am happy with my frag tank setup now and am just waiting for my corals to grow out more. I'll let people know when I am ready to trade or sell some zoo's and chalices someday!

Thank you for the compliments!

Haahaa I haven't been suckered into anything anywhere near close to the price of those PH's. I would like to see some of the larger colonies of the Japanese zoos before they get fragged up.

I have heard a couple different time now that they are suffering from fairly common fungus infections by the time they get over here.

How do you peeps keep them smaller?? The Zoa's I have are taking over my tank LOL. I mounted them on large rocks, and am not sure how to "Thin" them out? I would like to maintain them in smaller patches. That and some, the stems are now close to 2" in length :o

It depends on the species of zoanthid. Zoas will tend to be shorter and smaller in diameter. Palys tend to be longer with a larger diameter. Possible I suppose that your zoas are "stretching" towards the light. One method I have used is to glue a rock in the path of your spreading zoas, when they creep on to the "barricade" rock, you pop the rock off and sell or trade it....or give it to me:twised:

Yes, I need more Oyster shells for them to grow unto. Maybe they Paly's then?? If they are stretching to the light, which is what it appears, A brighter light should settle them down, no? have 2 175W MH coming to replace the 4 tube 24W TEK

Couple of newer photos, unfortunately due to an ALK swing I have lost some of my favorite colonies. Weirdest thing, I haven't added any additives to the tank for about 2 weeks (I tested around the 5th with an ALK reading of 7) and 2 days ago I tested and it was at 13!!! Slowly lowering it down but I'm stumped on a reason :neutral:.

Question for y'all;

Ive looked quite extensively on the internet for pictures of these unreal zoo's we go bananas over in the wild and have come up pretty much empty handed.
Anyone know of a good site with pics of zoo's in the wild.

Or are my hunches correct that the really gorgeous zoa's do not come from the wild, and are in fact made from skittles and mermaid farts?
(dont count out my hypothesis just yet)

Fragging season will come shortly, In the last few months I have had some stupid parameter swings due to negligence on my behalf (Temp & Alk). Zoa's are frustrating sometimes, you can be doing everything properly and then one day just randomly one colony or frag will spew it's guts and melt. Not 3 or 4 or 10 or 12 just 1, now how do you treat a problem like that?

Parameters have been getting better, I'm waiting on my dosing pump to ensure everything stays constant especially while I'm gone on summer vacation. Stefan I'm running a 4 foot 8 bulb tek 5 t5 lighting system mounted 9 inches above my water to ensure proper spread. If you are looking to get your zoas to pop in color I would suggest stable levels, letting them grow in a single place by not touching them and using a Vit C supplement.

Your LFS are definetly getting some nice Zoas/Paly in. Ones we don't see here to much. We have though been seeing more of the higher end palys around slowly leaking into the market. Also reread your post I see you mentioned where you got them from.

Thanks ,Chris

Paly's are actually my preference and I would love to see some of the varieties that are offered in the US or be able to afford to ship the rare varieties that a member was recently offering in Ontario.

I edited my post after you asked :wink:

06-03-2010, 08:18 PM

The US definetly get more of the hard ones to find. In most cases the LFS in LA where alot of these shipments arrive first before moving onto here get to cherry pick the nice ones first. We usually get the left overs or have to pay a kings ransome. Believe the guy back east is getting them from the states himself and growing them out. And Palys are my fav as well.

Well then I probably shouldn't post these next 20 photos :lol:, won't be fragging for a while but you will be first to know when it happens.

These are with my Panasonic DMC-TZ1 Camera using an underwater case and the underwater camera setting. The new zoa tank is working out pretty well, currently stocked with 2 red long finned fairy wrasses, 1 Copperband Butterfly, 1 BiColor Dotty Back, 4 Baby bangii's and 1 Saddle back clown (Will be trapping the bangiis and clown shortly).

Lighting is an 8 39W Tek 5 unit with 5 Actinic + and 3 Daylights.

Was wondering on where you get the vitamin c supplement and how much do u dose? how much of a dose would u suggest for a 29G skimmerless and refugeless

This is the product that was advised, I just used the Vit C pills from super store, no major problems but I actually stopped dosing a while ago. Ran out of pills and haven't purchased new ones :redface:.

Use this product:
http://www.iherb.com/ProductDetails.aspx?pid=10178&at=0
$5 0ff coupon code: LUL789 (good for first purchase).

To figure out how much to use, decide if you want to simply improve coral growth, spread, and color. If so, then you should dose around 5 ppm twice daily (down to 2-3 ppm works also). If you are having problems with coral or fish health, dose up to around 30 ppm twice daily.

Calculate the total net number of gallons in your tank (minus rocks, sand, etc). Enter that number here ______.

You will now need to do a little math. The amounts below are for 100 gallons of water so if you have 50 net gallons, cut the amounts shown below in half etc.

Dosing amounts using Iherb product:
1/4 tsp=1112 mg.

For every 100 gallons:

5 ppm ----- 1892 mg VC
10 ppm ---- 3785 mg VC
15 ppm ---- 5677 mg VC
20 ppm ---- 7570 mg VC
25 ppm ---- 9462 mg VC
30 ppm ---- 11355 mg VC

After you have figured out how much you want to dose at each dosing, enter that number here _____. This is your dose to be used twice a day.

Notes:
*Be sure your pH and alk are within normal reef limits before starting. Adjust if needed. Monitor weekly.
*Shoot for a ppm of around 5 or lower if only dosing for improved coral growth, coloration, and spread. Shoot for higher amounts up to 30 ppm if you are having melting zoas or closed zoas and look for the causes of your problems as you dose. Check for high nitrates, pests, zoa pox, predators, and unstable water conditions.
*Dose low amounts and increase the amount slowly over the course of a few days to a couple weeks.
* If you notice an algae bloom or increased skim on your glass then cut back by half until it disappears.
* Watch your skimmer, it will start to skim more.
* Dose the amount twice a day in a fast moving area of your sump or overflow. You may dilute the vitamin c in ro/di water for a minute then pour into my overflow. If adding to sump, try and add the vitamin c after filtration such as skimmers and reactors.
* If you have a question, ask here. Puffy checks this thread daily.
* The instructions in this guide and throughout this thread are based on using pure Sodium Ascorbate, not vitamin c pills and other non-buffered forms of vitamin c.

Be sure to take some "before" pics!

Im still willing to bet......there is a hint of green in the mouth there.....it looks to me like Mindy has them out in the open, fully exposed to the light....they would probably color up better for her if she shaded them a bit.....so..... whatcha willing to wager Dawn????:wink:

Willing to bet that they are PPEs:wink:

I asked the LFS and these Zoas are not from the right location to be PPEs, but I can't remember where they are from. :neutral: I found a picture of the same Zoas called Bumble Bee Zoas on a Google search...not sure how "official" that name is.

I picked up some Tubb's Blues and Purple Death yesterday. :D No pics yet.

Myka, I've looked on zoaid to try and identify mine and I think they might possibly be Purple Puddles.

Ya, I noticed those too. They are close...maybe we could pass them off as "Purple Puddle Morphs". :D Mine aren't really purple in the center though...more grey.

The last pic seems imo that something needs to be done in order to improve their health

I may be wrong but I had zoa's/paly's for 7 years and been through it all and the last pic look's like they need attention IMO

Possible , the pics were taken the same day I bought it, it looks the same now as it did from the person I got it off of. I've only had them a week or two now but they gave not changed color and are out and open all the time and so far they seem healthy to me:)

I picked up a new colony that I have never seen before today, I thought it was magicians but I'm almost positive it's a zoa because of the size. Magician palys are like 4 times the size of these little guys, there the red ones located in the top of the photo.
