A gorgeous light purple-pink colored zoanthid with contrasting green tips. Once mature, Rainbow Sakuras will gain a yellow glittery center around the mouth. They may also gain more pink in their body under different light conditions. From our observations, they tend to gain more pink under high lighting but will have smaller and more compact polyps. Every reef tank is different, so place these where you normally would keep your zoanthids and see how they color up over time!
Stock frags are made to order. Heal time is around 1-2 weeks.

Originator
Legendary Corals
Care Level
Great beginner coral! Does not consume elements such as alkalinity, calcium, and magnesium readily. A great choice if you're looking to keep a low maintenance reef or are just getting into the hobby and haven't built a strong understanding of the hobby yet.
Growth Rate
A great grower! Increased growth with feeding such as Benepets.
Lighting Placement
Prefers to be kept in lower to medium light.
Currently kept under Kessil A360X units. Mounting height 24" above water line. 12:00PM - 10:00PM at 100% blue intensity.
Flow Strength
We recommend starting smaller zoanthid frags in lower flow until it reaches a small colony size. Once established, increase the flow level to avoid any detritus building up in between the mat. If detritus builds up inside the matting of the zoanthid, it can cause bacterial issues.
Currently kept with Maxspect Gyre 350s Pumps.
