Chili Pepper Montipora Digitata & Alien Eye Zoanthid 3 Polyps

Zoanthis corals are very fast growing and adjust to most lighting.

They are easy to keep which makes them a good choice for beginner reef aquarists. In good water parameters they will reproduce easily in the reef aquarium by budding which will increase the size of their colony.

They contain the symbiotic algae, "zooxanthellae," which will provide almost all of their nutritional requirements.
