I am a beginner. I am a newbie and I’m learning a lot from you guys. Thank you.
You're welcome
In my opinion you should buy zoas based on what you like. They grow fairly fast, so this months hot zoas is next week's ten dollar frag
I won a Superstar polyp during Fragtoberfest 2017 - grew 8 polyps in 4 months before I fragged it! SOOOOOooo it's a good investment and they are fast growers!
Great info on zoos. I will start with those.
Good luck!
Zoas have always been my favorite coral
Great video, great pics bro. With so many bad ass zoas out there, a person could make a one hour video and still miss some. It is 10/17/2020 and I just ordered to small zoa colonies from WWC....Blue Eyed girls and some Space Queens...they are both so amazing....google those bad girls...hehehe
I’m going zoa crazy too! You actually named my favorite zoa, #9!
good video keep them coming. good reefing
I have no idea what the names all are but that’s why I watch you. 😂 great Top 10 and precaution reminder for newbies like me and my friends. We thank you!
This dude is honestly so helpful jeez
awesome zoas,my first coral was a zoanthid they sure make a reef tank look amazing 👌🏼
Very cool video, thanks! Looking to try and get a couple of these that you listed!
How could you not include Rasta and Utter Chaos zoas!? those are may favs
I think utter chaos are palys
probably cause this is a video he made about his favs....we'd all love to see your video....
I got me a frag of halle berry today! I love any coral that is pink! I was bidding on WWC on ebay and on your new video you mentioned aoi so I won the bid on some of them. Not that impressed at all. If it had a bright skirt then it would be amazing espially since you dont see many blues in reef tanks! I also picked up scrambled eggs because I have no yellow ones and they are beautiful for yellow, much nicer then kind midas! I also got another rasta because mine died in a crash a while back along with my sunny d's so I picked some of those up as well! I bid on one of their auction just because I couldt find a neon green stemmed duncan and i ended up winning 17 corals! haha. I would say I got carried away! I live in Florida so shipping is only 20 bucks plus they let me hold order for a week and participate in the following weeks auction so thats why I got so many!
Great list I got some scrambled eggs last week absolutely love them
I can recognize the voice anywhere good to see you at Coral Farm today
Timely video before my new nano finishes cycling, love these vids!
I’m going to get back into zoas this spring.
1,2,3 and 5 are the only ones you mentioned that I would buy. Cant believe Utter Chaos, Rasta's or Fruitloops wasnt on the list!
Maybe next time!
Haven't gotten my Zoas addiction going yet but after watching this video I'm definitely ready to take the plunge
The are a beautiful addition to any reef tank.
Great videos once again , Iam learning so much so ty 👍
I got rid of most of my Zoas recently, I was getting tired of them.....UNTIL you made this video. Now I need some of the number 1s at least.
I’ve gotten away from zoanthids for years but I’m thinking about getting some high end ones for the 220 gallon.
Great list! Scrabbled eggs are easily my favorite. Fast growers in my tank.
All 10 are my favorite. So hard to choose from! 🤯
Hey Jeff I love your channel. I am starting a saltwater tank and I get loads of advise from your channel.
Thanks for dropping me a line. Let me know if you need any help.
I love your videos!
I love your videos
Awsome vid !!!really good choices I gotta get on some of these corals!!
Thanks for watching!
Sweet video. Love Zoa’s just getting into them. 👍👍
I love Zoa’s. New to reefing so of course I’m loading up on these. My favorite so far are green purple eaters. Just picked up a frag of 10 polyps for $5. Love my local fish store. Thanks for your input on them.
Awesome vid!!!! Keep them coming!!
Great videos!!
Thanks for watching!
Crazy cool Zoas wish I had the money to buy all of those
Nice video. Helpful to beginners like us. Very informative
Thank you for watching!
Great video. I’m definitely addicted to zoas. Bought 3 polyps if scrambled eggs for I think $20.
I like the plain old palythoa’s that are huge
So dangerously btw I have a four little green dots lazer green I only see little cylinders with a dot in the middle does this sound like zoeanthids or palythoas
Also zoanthids are they as toxic if u just keep like 4
Also they are brown coloured on the bases they look like little tunnels with a green dot
Love zoas! Great vid!
Awesome video dude! Love those blue zoas!
I love blue zoas too.
Great video! Love zoa's.
I like the Void Zoas from Tidal Gardens. Only $35 for a handful of polyps!
I just got a plug of African steel Zoas yesterday ~25 polyps for $20 what a buy :)
I got a colony of like 80 zoos, gorgeous, for $80 bucks here in Daytona. And in a few weeks polyps died, got algae, fell off, shriveled. I still have maybe over 40 polyps that look killer. I manually feed using FUEL and some zooplankton. If I brush these half dead algae covered polyps, will the rest of the colony grow back? It came on a palm sized rock.
Same, got a soft spot for anything blue.
Great video. You said blue mouths with green skirts or green skirts with blue mouths
Is there a difference between polyps and Zoa I appreciate your response thank you love you videos
Zoa are zoanthids, polyps can also mean zoanthids (also, LPS, SPS, corallites) but is often used to loosely in the hobby.
Enjoyed the video! Will definitely get some WWC zoas!!
When you buy straight off the website you pay a little more. Try to find one of their live sales on Reef2Reef you’ll save some money. Hint, hint they are have one towards the end of the month.
Mad Hatter's Reef -awesome I appreciate the tip!!
Love crazy named zoas!! WWC has a beautiful one named Wanna be RPE zoanthids!
I just got scrambled eggs zoas for $35 a frag and had 6-7 polyps on it😵
chrisd925 lazys frag house. I did an unboxing video on my order about a week or so ago
😮
Yeah the store I work at just sold some for 65 and had about 13 polyps. We knew what they were just don't care much for em
I love this list
Thanks for watching!
I loved the number two pylop some of those I've seen cheeper,just saying others are so pricey
WWC has higher prices but they are probably one the top 5 dealers in the US. They often have epic sales throughout the year where you can grab corals for way under retail price.
Nice video
I got aptasia killer on my mushroom and it curled up and put out white strings.did I kill it?
my lfs triton marine aquaculture has some awesome zoas for cheaper online. wwc imo is on the expensive side
Not as high as much as the superstar zoanthid but is still high. You’re much better off to support your LFS when ever you can but WWC has really good sale throughout the year.
Great list, I think the twizzler should have been number 1, I thi k I'm in love. Too many strange names to remember. We just say this one or that one.
I bought some rastas yesterday and dipped them but when they started opening in my tank the middle of the polyps last all color and pretty much turned black. Any idea? Thanks
What did you dip with and how long?
Looking at the WWC and just looking at the name of the all Zoanthids the weird is “Goochster” . Are all these Zoanthids need to be in 250 gallons?
At a local frag swap I bought a 4 polyp zoa for 25 which the guy that was selling it called it the legally blonde Zoa because of its pink mouth and yellowish skirt
I'd like to do a garden of these in the bottom of my 75. Is that possible? Or will they fight with each other. I'm thinking of something that would look like a field of wild flowers if that makes sense.
Nice zoas Jeff but some are expensive. Putting them out of my budget.
I love the scrambled egg Zoanthid!
I'm torn between eagle eye zoanthids @ $25 and illuminati zoanthids @ $140 for single poly. Both are incredible :D
Emperor Zoas look fliping amazing and go for $2000+ I don't know who would spend that much but, I would love to have some if they were cheaper. They are not my favorite though because they are so $$. I like utter chaos zoas. They look cool and are affordable for how good they look.
Sweet, never heard of the emperor zoas. Often things start out high in price and them come down over time. Thanks for sharing!
Liked your zoa picks...
Thanks and thanks for watching!
That AOI is a stunner! I can’t keep zoas in my system, my Klein’s turns into a pig and eats them all.
Instead of latex recommend nitrile they are a little more expensive but don’t leach anything and are allergy safe they are the blue black or purple gloves you would see at a doctors office or hospital they also come in pink and orange but that’s less common
time to go shopping for zoas
What does AOI stand for?
My LFS had a 2-3 polyp darth maul for $169.
Every single one of those zoa from wwc is over price.I can find them at my LFS for 10-$20 for a frag,then again what did i expect from wwc when they sell green slimmer for $79.Too many fanboy out there
Are those aquacultured though?
Those twizzler zoas are freakin sweet I want them now lol
They are pretty awesome.
The Adonis is pretty weird and averagely costs 200 but my favorite was by far the superstar. I really want to see a super colony of that one
I’m buying a 5 headed frag of sunny d’s for 10$ and a 2 headed blue hornet for 10$, is this a good deal? Also this is Canadian dollars
I haven’t been able to keep them alive, I don’t see any pest to eat them but is always the same they star good and eventually start closing and never opened again.
I loved the $200 superstar, but if never be able to afford it lol
My favorite is the Green bay packers Zoa from WWC
They are a classic, thanks for stopping by🙂
Mad Hatter's Reef No problem, great content!!
Luckily 2 of my favs are affordable Fire & Ice Zonathids and Fruit Loops.
I have to download this...no choice...must have......
Just an FYI, it isn’t infected with palytoxins, it is a poison not an organism. It is exposure. It is a very potent neurotoxin. Use gloves, face shields, clean surfaces exposed very carefully. If fragging in tank, run carbon and do water change right afterwards.
Thanks for keeping me in line and great tips!👍🏻
I’ve been told that placing Zoas on the sand will hinder their expansion, growth and they often won’t grow out passed the frag plug..?? Is this true.
Epic!!!
Insane prices for zoas
I don't have zoas but I'm sold now lol
I understand they do best in as little flow as possible is that true?
Medium flow is best for zoanthids. Just like most corals they need flow to keep debris off them as well as push waste away and bring nutrients in.
I've got some called Utter Chaos that I can't get to grow on my overflow for the life of me
I love zoas and have many varieties but none of these 10 lol
I’m partial to the blues myself
Does anyone have any idea why zoas do not survive in my tank. I have other more sensitive corals ie. plate coral, candy canes, Duncan’s, etc and they are thriving. However, I can never maintain zoas. They always dwindle very thin, then they die. Any advice?
Do you dip your corals?
Mad Hatter's Reef always
No utter chaos? Still looking to grab some for myself.
Not sure they had any available when I was on their site. They are gearing up for a big sale at the end of the month on Reef2Reef.
I love zoanthids. I'm not that creative. My favorites are orange bambams.
👍
Anything named Halle Berry is my automatic #1🥰
Most of us have heavily blue tint to our lighting in reef tanks to increase glow......those blue Zoas are not impressive under this kind of lighting. You actually have to look close to even see them....using Radion Gen5 blue
Honestly never heard of the superstar til this vid,bout dropped my phone when I seen the $199 price tag for single polyp
Lol. Yeah that price is a little hard to swallow.
Verry Nice corals!
I’m more of a seagrass in macroalgae guy
^ watches a video about marinating, grilling and eating steaks then say's, "I am more of a vegetarian."...hahahahaha
Get you some Bowzers and will make you go wowzers
No Rasta???
I saw live aquaria was selling darthmaul for 100$, it was a colony
3 polyp rasta for 5 bucks
I have one of the top 10 in my tank. The others are ok but too expensive for my budget
Laser Lemon zoas from WWC $55.00 Blue Zoas all day long!
I want some darth mauls
