Shop Zoanthid Frags
Zoanthids are popular reef aquarium corals because of their incredible variety of colors, patterns and growth forms. A single reef can contain many different zoanthid morphs, creating a colorful garden of polyps across live rock and coral plugs.
Our collection can include individual WYSIWYG zoanthids in a wide range of colors and named morphs. Availability changes regularly as individual frags are sold and new specimens are added.
Because each WYSIWYG listing represents a specific coral, you can shop based on the exact appearance of the specimen rather than relying on a representative photograph.
What Are Zoanthids?
Zoanthids are colonial soft corals made up of individual polyps connected by tissue. Each polyp has a central mouth surrounded by a colorful skirt, and different morphs can display dramatically different combinations of colors and patterns.
Zoanthids are available in countless color combinations, including green, orange, red, yellow, blue, purple, pink and multicolor varieties.
Their relatively compact growth form also makes them popular for reef aquariums of many sizes.
Why Buy WYSIWYG Zoanthid Frags?
One of the biggest advantages of buying WYSIWYG coral is knowing exactly what specimen you are purchasing.
Instead of receiving a randomly selected frag that only resembles the product photograph, a WYSIWYG listing allows you to evaluate the actual coral before ordering.
Depending on the listing, you can see:
- The exact color combination
- Polyp count
- Colony or frag size
- Pattern and coloration
- Skirt coloration
- Center coloration
- Overall appearance
For collectors searching for particular zoanthid morphs, WYSIWYG listings make online coral shopping much more predictable.
Popular Zoanthid Morphs
Zoanthids are especially popular with collectors because individual morphs can have distinctive names and appearances.
Our available inventory may include popular varieties such as Rasta, King Midas, Rainbow Hornet, Pink Nirvana, Scrambled Egg, Bob Marley, Blue Hornets and other colorful zoanthid morphs.
Availability changes frequently, so the exact varieties available in this collection will change as individual specimens are sold and new frags are listed.
Zoanthid Coral Care
Zoanthids are commonly kept in reef aquariums and are generally considered an approachable coral for many reef keepers.
A successful zoanthid aquarium should provide stable reef parameters, appropriate lighting and suitable water movement.
When introducing a new zoanthid frag, allow the coral time to acclimate to your aquarium. Lighting and flow should be adjusted according to the needs of the particular specimen and the conditions in your reef.
Stable water quality is important for maintaining healthy coral growth. Avoid making large or unnecessary changes to aquarium parameters.
Zoanthid Lighting
Zoanthids can adapt to a range of reef lighting conditions, but individual varieties may respond differently.
When moving a zoanthid from one aquarium to another, gradual acclimation can help reduce stress, particularly when the lighting intensity differs significantly from the previous environment.
Watch the coral's response after introduction and adjust placement as necessary.
Zoanthid Flow
Zoanthids generally benefit from water movement that keeps the surrounding water circulating without constantly blasting the polyps with strong direct flow.
Appropriate flow can help prevent debris from accumulating around the colony and can encourage normal polyp extension.
The ideal flow level depends on the individual coral and the conditions of the aquarium.
Building a Zoanthid Garden
One of the most popular ways to keep zoanthids is to create a dedicated zoa garden containing multiple morphs.
Different colors and patterns can be placed together to create a highly varied reef display.
When planning a zoanthid garden, consider the growth patterns and spacing requirements of the individual colonies. Give each variety enough room to grow while maintaining the visual separation that makes each morph stand out.
Lowcountry Coral Boys also offers custom-made Zoanthid Mini-Gardens for reef keepers who want to combine multiple colorful zoanthid varieties.
Beginner-Friendly Zoanthids
Many reef keepers choose zoanthids when they are beginning to explore coral keeping because they can be a relatively approachable addition to a mature reef aquarium.
However, "beginner-friendly" does not mean that every aquarium condition will work for every zoanthid. Stable water parameters, appropriate lighting, adequate flow and proper acclimation are still important.
If you're new to keeping zoanthids, starting with a healthy, established frag and monitoring its response to your aquarium is a good way to learn how your system affects coral growth.
Rare and Collector Zoanthids
Some zoanthid morphs are particularly popular among collectors because of their distinctive colors, patterns, lineage or limited availability.
Rare zoanthids can vary substantially in price depending on the individual specimen and market demand.
Because our WYSIWYG listings represent individual corals, available collector specimens may change quickly.
If you see a particular zoanthid you want, check the listing for current availability, photographs and product details.
