Overview

The Hawaiian People Eater Zoanthid (*Zoanthus spp.*) features a mesmerizing palette of bright pink and blue, famously accented by an iconic green mouth. These larger-polyped Zoas create encrusting mats that spread beautifully across your rockwork, bringing a vibrant, flower-like appearance to your aquatic landscape. Known for their peaceful nature and fast growth, they are a captivating addition for any reef enthusiast.

Care Level

Considered easy to moderate, Hawaiian People Eater Zoanthids are suitable for both beginners and experienced aquarists. They are peaceful and reef-safe, making them compatible with most tank inhabitants. Always handle Zoanthids with care, using gloves and eye protection, due to the potential presence of palytoxin.

Tank Essentials

A minimum of 30 litres is recommended for a healthy frag to establish. Maintain stable parameters: temperature 22-26°C, pH 8.1-8.4, and salinity 1.023-1.026. Moderate to high lighting will enhance their brilliant colours, coupled with moderate, indirect water flow to keep polyps clean and extended.

Diet

Hawaiian People Eaters are primarily photosynthetic, benefiting from their symbiotic zooxanthellae. While not strictly required, occasional target feeding with small frozen foods like mysis shrimp fines, cyclops plankton, or powdered coral foods can boost growth and vibrancy.
