Gorilla Nipples Zoanthus: Vibrant & Easy Reef Beauties

Add a burst of color and unique texture to your reef aquarium with the captivating Gorilla Nipples Zoanthus, a favorite among aquarists for its stunning appearance and straightforward care.

Overview

The Gorilla Nipples Zoanthus, often called “Gorilla Nipples Zoa,” is a striking soft coral with a distinctive appearance. It features a bright neon-green oral disc, reminiscent of its namesake, contrasted by earthy brown to tan skirts. Under blue lighting, the green center glows vividly, creating a captivating contrast. These corals form colonial mats, spreading across rockwork and adding dynamic texture and color to your reef scape. They are primarily photosynthetic but benefit from supplemental feeding.

Care Level

Easy. Gorilla Nipples Zoanthus are hardy and adaptable, making them an excellent choice for beginners. They are peaceful and fast-growing, but it is crucial to provide adequate space as they can spread and may release toxins if stressed.

Tank Essentials

A minimum tank size of 100 liters is recommended. Maintain stable water parameters with a temperature of 23–27°C (75–80°F), a pH of 8.1–8.4, and a salinity of 1.024–1.026. Moderate, indirect water flow is ideal to keep their polyps clean and extended.

Diet

While primarily photosynthetic, Gorilla Nipples Zoanthus will benefit from occasional feedings of small-particle foods like zooplankton or coral snow to support optimal growth and coloration.
