🧬 Overview
The Super Flower Zoanthus “Yellow & Red” is a high-impact zoanthid morph known for its intense colour contrast and intricate ring pattern. Each polyp resembles a glowing flower, with layered tones creating depth and visual texture.
Under blue lighting, the fluorescence becomes extremely vibrant, making the yellow tones pop while the red adds depth and intensity. As the colony grows, it forms a dense carpet of “floral” polyps, transforming rock surfaces into a vivid display.
Perfect for reef keepers looking to add bold colour blocks and detailed patterns to their zoanthid collections.
🧾 Frag / Colony Note
You will receive a healthy frag or small colony, selected for polyp count, colour intensity and pattern clarity.
Selected for:
• Bright yellow and deep red colour contrast
• Distinct floral ring pattern
• Strong fluorescence under actinic lighting
• High visual detail and texture
• Fast spreading colony potential
🍽️ Care & Feeding
Zoanthids rely mainly on photosynthesis but can benefit from feeding.
Recommended feeding occasionally:
• Fine coral foods or powdered plankton
• Broadcast feeding in mature systems
⚠️ Note: Handle with care, as Zoanthus species may contain palytoxins.
