Pink Lady Zoanthus: A Splash of Vibrant Color for Your Reef!

Infuse your marine aquarium with the dazzling charm of the Pink Lady Zoanthus. These easy-to-care-for corals create stunning, encrusting mats of brilliant pink, instantly enhancing your reef landscape.

Overview
The Pink Lady Zoanthus (*Zoanthus sp.*) features polyps with vibrant pink discs and often contrasting skirts, forming captivating colonies that spread across your rockwork. As a photosynthetic soft coral, they contribute to your aquarium’s ecosystem while offering a dynamic visual display. Their colonial nature means they will form beautiful, expanding mats, adding texture and a focal point to your reef.

Care Level
Considered easy to care for, Pink Lady Zoanthus are excellent corals for both beginner and experienced aquarists. They are generally peaceful but can grow to cover adjacent rockwork or slow-growing corals if left unchecked. Always handle zoanthids with caution, using gloves, as some species can contain palytoxin.

Tank Essentials
A minimum tank size of 100 litres is recommended for a thriving colony. Provide stable water parameters: a temperature range of 24-27°C, pH 8.0-8.4, and salinity 1.025-1.026. Moderate water flow is crucial to keep polyps clean and supply nutrients, while moderate to high lighting supports their growth.

Diet
While primarily sustained by the symbiotic zooxanthellae within their tissues through photosynthesis, Pink Lady Zoanthus benefit from supplemental feeding. Offer finely crushed foods like marine snow, zooplankton, or coral-specific particulate foods 2-3 times per week to boost growth and coloration.
