ECC Impastas Zoanthid

Species: Zoanthus sp.

Coral Type: Zoanthus

Physical Description: Impastas Zoanthids are colorful button polyps recognized for their bright orange to golden centers surrounded by contrasting outer rings and skirts. Each polyp forms a round oral disk with a fringe of short tentacles, creating the familiar zoanthid flower-like appearance. As the colony grows, the polyps spread across rockwork and frag plugs, gradually forming dense mats of polyps. Under actinic lighting, their warm tones fluoresce vividly, making them a vibrant addition to zoanthid gardens.

Coral Type: Zoanthus
Lighting: Moderate (approximately 80–150 PAR)
Flow Rate: Low to Moderate with gentle, indirect flow
Food Requirements: Primarily photosynthetic but can benefit from occasional broadcast feeding of fine particulate foods such as reef roids or phytoplankton.
Aggression: Low; generally peaceful and suitable for mixed reef aquariums.
Substrate: Best placed on rockwork, frag plugs, or isolated zoanthid islands where the colony can spread naturally.

We maintain a rigorous, veterinarian-approved quarantine program that includes proactive treatments, careful observation, and daily monitoring to ensure the highest standards of coral and invertebrate health. Our biosecurity practices reduce the risk of any cross-contamination between systems, meaning all our livestock are ready for your display tanks.
