Can share your setting? Very nice zoas


No prob.
All blue and purple at 80
White at 30
Green/red at 5

I get quite good growth and colour with these combi. Once I try to set the white at 50, the Zoa at the top of the scape melted.

I'm more interested in everything else. What do you dose, how much, when, wc schedules. Everything else. Hahaha

My main dosing comes from aquaforest component 1,2,3 with 50ml each daily via dosing pump. Nothing else really.

I also dose AF coral A and V. 1 drop every alternate day if I remember. Not really religious.

The water change part is unconventional. I never use saltmix. I used NSW from iwarna and change about 50% weekly. It is achievable given that the tank volume is relatively small.

I also dose oyster eggs and phytofeast daily. I read many literature saying that Zoa will by feed on these but my Zoa is showing feeding response when the food is dose. If not, the food will get feed my gonio. 0e1a306978d4d1dbbcf3b62eff757902.jpg

I am lucky to view the zoas in person, they are super nice and healthy. I am surprised to see some zoas response to feeding.


Hey it's my blessing to have a great reef conversation from a experience reefer. Will dropby your place to witness it myself since I always go to the east often.

Im always curious how long would a single head zoas grow into, maybe 5 head?

Do u hv any estimation ?




I started my tank in May. Bought about 3 polyps of UC. And they are fast growers 78b9c9715d562790301f142f3944c144.jpg

Different zoas grows at different rate even though they are given the same exact condition side by side.

Example... This UC started with 3 polyps. And it exploded in the next 3 months.

Some just grow super slow in my tank like sunflower. Quite difficult to say.

Generally once they start growing, usually is a little bit faster.
