Zoanthids build their colonies through simple polyp budding, each new head genetically identical to the last and wired into a shared tissue mat underneath — which is why a colony this size can open and close almost in sync when the lights shift. The mixed morphs in this grouping give a broader color spread than a single-morph colony, useful if you're filling a larger patch of rockwork in one shot. Same palytoxin caveat applies to any zoanthid: gloves on for handling and fragging.

Care level: Easy · Light/Flow/Placement: Low-moderate light, low-moderate flow, bottom-to-mid tank · Max size: Colonial, spreads across available rock · Diet: Photosynthetic, benefits from fine particulate feeding
