Nuclear Green Zoanthid

[Rougiem]

Does anyone know the lighting requirement for this species? Any other information would be helpful. Having trouble finding out the specifics on them.

Cheers!

Any pics? In general, "Nuclear Green" will be more of an identifier and marketing pitch than actual species.

Sounds like a zoanthus... try this for some links to 3 excellent articles (and one on taxonomy you'll probably want to skip)

We have Nuclear Green Zoanthids here
and we have them under T5 lighting. Not sure if you are talking about the same zoas but I thought I would bring it up just in case

Thanks for the information! Actually I like reading classification articles too! (Biology teacher)

Corals and More thank you for your info! Those are the ones!

Cheers!

Zoas in General can be kept under many different lighting all the way from PC to MH. I have noticed that depending on the color morphs, some does better under regular T5/PC then MH. At times, Zoas tend to shift in color, hence too much or little light .

flow,,,is the main thing,,,moderate indirect flow..and they will be happy. as said light is a factor in them too,,,to much and orange/red go brown,,,not enough,,,blues go pale...but as they spred,,,they will find their happy place.
