Zoa Growth?

[john26]

What is the best possible way to multiply your Zoa population? Any tricks put there?

Good light, flow, water conditions, food and time

Any supplements that can speed up growth? I have some blue clove polyps that are growing very well but my Zoas seem to be lagging. GSP is growing great, Hammers growing great, frogspawns also going excellent. Among other corals as well, just made the switch to LED and the Zoas are popping now. Should hopefully see some great growth with them now.

I could give a a zoa.that grows a new one in my tank every week and it might grow one every 6 months in yours.

I will have to take a count of how many I have and then see the growth that way. I may have some that are growing but just haven't seen the change. Will take a rough count.

I use aquavitro fuel to help stimulate some coral growth....

Will have to look into getting that. I've just started feeding the tank plankton and the corals seem to woof it up.

zoa's are tricky... sometimes they grow like weeds, and sometimes they are very slow. I have 2 types of zoanthids next to each other in my tank. One gets a new polyp weekly, the other.. MAYBE one per month

+1 on Fuel! Best suppliment I have ever used! Also, I feed Brightwell Aquatics Zoaplanktos-L, It works very well! I just started using Oyster Feast, I have heard good things about it!
