Overview
The Stratosphere Pulse Zoas are among the most coveted Zoanthus morphs in the reefing world — a true collector’s gem. Each polyp bursts with interstellar contrast: a deep-space blue core surrounded by golden rings and neon lashes that shimmer and pulse with light movement.
This ultra-frag is ideal for creating a focal cluster in any zoa garden or nano reef, especially when grouped with high-contrast companions.
Care & Feeding
These zoas are photosynthetic and thrive under strong, stable lighting. Although not mandatory, occasional target feeding with microplankton or amino acid blends can boost polyp size, colour intensity, and colony growth.
Optimal Parameters
-
Alkalinity (dKH): 8–11
-
Calcium (Ca): 420–460 ppm
-
Magnesium (Mg): 1250–1350 ppm
-
Nitrate (NO₃): 2–15 ppm
-
Phosphate (PO₄): 0.01–0.07 ppm
Placement
Mount in a moderate-flow, well-lit section of your reef — rock ledges or frag racks work well. Allow space for encrustation and avoid shading by larger corals. Ideal for both display and propagation systems.
🌌✨ Stratosphere Pulse Zoas
Like staring through a telescope into reef-space — ultra-rare, ultra-luminous, and utterly out of this world.
