This Zoanthid sp. colony was obtained from a local Los Angeles importer late
2005. The body coloration is a deep purple with a bright orange center eye.
The Bright green skirt has 2 distinct layers of tentacles!!!
(see photos), a very unusual and exciting find. We are very happy to offer this
wonderful coral for the first time!! This Zoo Limited Edition is being grown
by The Coral Oasis who is distributing and growing fragments of this coral from
the original colony. The colony has been unfragged and kept in a soft coral
propagation system at The Coral Oasis farm facility since obtaining it. Growth
has been steady and coloration has intensified even more than when we obtained
it. We are propagating this coral in a Zoanthid propagation system at The Coral
Oasis grow out and distribution facility. The coral is positioned at about 12
inches from 2 Power Compact 96w 10k and 03 Actinic bulbs and 1 34w T-5 Actinic.
Water current is moderate. Starting in April 2006 The Coral Oasis will distribute
1 farmed fragment of this spectacular coral per month. Price is currently $20
per polyp and a fragment consists of 1~2 polyps. The monthly limited edition
reservation schedule can be found below.
