Zoanthids are the easiest coral other then duncans that I have ever kept. They grow like weeds for me and will take just about any conditions. I do not feed them and feel that they like dissolved organics and most of all they need to be left alone. It also helps if they are on a very nice piece of flat rock and are touching other pieces of flat rock with no algae growth on it so they can spread like lava. That being said every now and then a colony will cause a virus or something and cause them to melt while all other zoanthids and plays are unaffected.


All zoanthids were grown form frags in about a year’s time:









Grown from a single polyp cut from the other colony in the tank:
