Scrambled Egg Zoanthids are reef classics—featuring a neon yellow mouth, glowing green center, and contrasting deep purple skirts. They’re hardy, fast-growing, and bring major visual pop to any Zoa garden or nano reef.
Care Level: Easy
Lighting: Moderate to High (100–250 PAR)
Flow: Moderate – enough to keep detritus off without blasting polyps
Placement: Low to mid rockwork or sandbed – spread quickly under stable conditions
Water Parameters:
• Temp: 76–78°F
• Salinity: 1.025
• dKH: 8–10
• Calcium: 400–450 ppm
• Magnesium: 1250–1350 ppm
• Nitrate: 2–10 ppm
• Phosphate: 0.01–0.1 ppm
Feeding:
Optional—can absorb nutrients from the water, but occasional feeding of coral foods can boost growth and color intensity.
Growth Tips:
Maintain stable water parameters and keep an eye out for Zoa predators like nudibranchs. These zoas thrive in a well-maintained tank and can double in size quickly.
Note: Frags are not WYSIWYG. Each colony displays slightly unique coloration under different lighting setups. 🍳
