Red People Eater Zoas are a hardy, large-polyp variety valued for their relatively uncommon red coloration. A neon-green mouth creates strong contrast against the dark purple and red areas of each polyp.

Begin the frag under lower light and gradually acclimate it to its permanent location. Stable reef conditions and gentle, indirect water movement encourage consistent polyp extension and colony growth.

Zoanthid handling notice: Zoanthids may contain palytoxin. Wear gloves and eye protection when handling them, avoid touching your face and never expose zoanthids to boiling water or steam.
