Emerald on Fire Zoas (8 Polyps)
Emerald on Fire Zoas (8 Polyps)
Emeralds on fire are beautiful very brightly colored zoa!
Emeralds on Fire Zoas have been making their way around the hobby since at least the early 2010s, and the name actually traces back to the reef keeper who originally introduced them, using the username “Emeralds on Fire.”
They’re tiny little polyps that somehow managed to squeeze an unreasonable amount of color into the available real estate. A metallic emerald-green face surrounds a blue center, while a fiery red skirt finishes the outside. They may be smaller than the average zoa, but apparently nobody told them they had to dress accordingly.

Flow — 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 Emerald on Fire 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.
