Magician Zoa

About this coral

Magician Zoa Multiples Available are zoanthids (commonly sold as “zoas”/“palys” in the aquarium trade) selected under the “Magician” name and offered as multiple polyps. Use them to build a mixed zoa garden on live rock or sand, where their connected tissue can help create an eye-catching carpet effect over time. Since “Magician” is a commercial color/morph trade name, exact scientific identity is not guaranteed by the listing name alone; the guidance below is group-level for zoanthids/palythoa-type animals.

Features:

• Multiple-poly pack so you can start a denser zoa garden faster than a single polyp.
• Zoanthids are colonial soft corals whose polyps extend and retract with aquarium conditions.
• Generally suited to reef aquariums where tank water chemistry is stable.
• Placement should aim for gentle, detritus-free water movement that keeps polyps open.
• Good candidate for aquascaping islands/rubble zones where you can maintain consistent light and flow.
• Group-level care favors moderate light and low-to-moderate flow for typical zoanthid keeping.
• May benefit from maintaining clean surfaces and appropriate supplemental feeding options offered to corals (as desired by the keeper).
