CC Flaming Brohican Zoas
CC Flaming Brohican Zoas have a little hobby legend around them — they showed up in a wave of imports that spawned several nicknames (Reverse Hallucination, Sticker Shock) and sparked lively ID threads on reef forums, which is part of why collectors pay attention; people talk about them like a coral with personality, often swapping stories about the early finds, memorable frags, and the names that stuck as different shops and hobbyists offered their own takes. That backstory — the timing of their arrival, the tangled naming history, and the way they became a sought-after piece in many collections — is what makes them interesting and collectible to folks who enjoy a coral with a story.

We recommend starting the CC Flaming Brohican Zoas in the 100 - 200 PAR range.
Flow — Moderate
Moderate
Provide Moderate variable flow that keeps detritus from settling on the Zoas. Avoid constant direct current from the same direction in favor of random chaotic water movement.
Placement — Island
Placement of your CC Flaming Brohican Zoas is one of the most important decisions.
This is where you’ll have to take lighting, flow, future growth and nearby corals into consideration.
Since it prefers 100 - 200 PAR range it will need to be mounted Island on your rock work depending on your light intensity.
Allow room for its Matting growth form, and consider neighboring coral colors and shape. When possible, use contrasting corals such as red next to green, blue next to orange, or yellow next to purple, and mix growth forms such as tall branching corals next to plating or encrusting corals.
