Zoanthids and Palythoas are popular soft corals loved for their bright colors, unique patterns, and fast growing matting colonies that quickly add movement and coverage to a reef aquarium. They adapt well to a wide range of lighting and flow, typically thriving in moderate light with moderate water movement. Generally hardy and beginner friendly, they grow best in stable water conditions and benefit from occasional feeding or nutrient availability. Palythoas often grow larger with thicker polyps than zoanthids and may contain palytoxin, so gloves and eye protection are recommended when handling or fragging.
