Yoda Zoanthids

Yoda Paly is a popular and eye-catching zoanthid coral known for its bright neon green center, dark outer ring, and contrasting skirts. The glowing coloration resembles the iconic “Yoda” look under blue reef lighting, making it a standout addition to any zoa garden. This coral grows by forming a spreading mat across rock surfaces and can quickly develop into a vibrant colony when kept in stable reef conditions. Yoda Palys are hardy, adaptable, and well suited for both beginner and experienced reef hobbyists.

Aquarium Care Requirements:

Lighting: Yoda Zoanthids thrive under moderate to high lighting. Their vivid pink coloration becomes most pronounced under blue or actinic spectrum LEDs, making them a standout in reef tanks.

Water Flow: Moderate water flow is ideal. It helps keep the polyps clean, encourages healthy growth, and allows the zoas to open fully without being stressed by strong currents.

Placement: These zoanthids thrive when placed in the lower to mid-level areas of the tank. They adapt easily to different positions but should be gradually acclimated to more intense lighting if they are moved to a higher position.

Feeding: While they are primarily photosynthetic, occasional feedings with fine particulate foods like Reef-Roids or powdered coral foods can enhance growth and coloration.

Aggression: Yoda Zoanthids are peaceful and have low aggression. However, they can spread quickly, so it’s best to give them space to grow without encroaching on slower-growing corals.
