Making an Amazing Zoa Garden 

This tank is one of the reasons I got into the hobby. I hope you and the reef are still thriving.

One of the best tanks I've ever seen

Every time a see these JBJ tanks they look amazing. Beautiful and inspiring tank. Thank you so much for sharing

It's not only the zoas, sps, polyps etc. The way you place them is a work of art! Beautiful!

the colors and layout of your reef tank are absolutely fantastic! Congratulations. Amo os Zoanthus ( são meus corais favoritos) e os seus são incrivelmente lindos!;

Beautiful Tank!!!! Hopefully my 40 gal breeder can look this nice one day

Whenever U show your tank I see to be looking at zoas the most. They just pop and look amazing. Tank looks great thanx for video

WOW! Just WOW at those colors! Great job! I love having Paly's and Zoo's in my tank. They are so easy to spread and propagate. Kudos to your light as well!

Such A Beautiful Example Of A Successfully Thriving Mini Reef! Great VID 🎥

this is one of the best tanks ive seen. in my tank im trying to build a zoa garden, but i want extra room for different corals in the future.

So beautiful. Thank you for sharing your tips.

Great tank! Brilliant colors and placement. I’ve got hammer garden. Duncan garden. Torch garden. Toadstool garden. Mixed mushrooms - ricordea, rodactis and discosoma garden. But really what’s growing best is my acan garden. Very cool to do these. I’ve got in another tank a flat rock covered in long neon green gsp and has near the edge of it a stalk of branching hammer. Looks like a open grassy field with a tree.

Love what you have done and how it looks. Keep up the great work. 👍

Stunning! 👌

Looks like I'm looking into a kaleidoscope... Hands down one of the best zoa farms I've ever seen. That is my goal is to make it look at least halfway as good as yours

This tank is stupid good! Thanks for sharing.

Wow beautiful gorgeous

Astonishing zoas bravo

The colours in your tank are freaking CRAZYYYY. 😍😍😍

Fantastic tank! Great video and some good information. Thank you!

Outstanding reef!!!

lindíssimo!!! um dos reefs mais bonitos que já vi, um dia chego lá rsrsrsrs

AWESOME REEF!👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

Great video! I’m working on a zoa garden myself. I’ve got some Blastomussa Merletti mixed in with them with I think will work out nicely. The lush and mature look of zoa,acans, etc that can be grown together can really make a tank.

Amazing reef

You have such a beautiful tank. This is my dream goal for my tank. I was almost there once with my old tank but I got zoa eating nudibranch then things went downhill.

Beautiful tank looks good

Awesome reef !!!!

Hands down the best Zoa garden aquarium on earth.

Great job Antonio coloration really came back with a vengeance haa

Most beautiful tank on RU-vid

Your tank is amazing can you do a video on your set up, filtration and the works?

I can tell that you have good taste when buying corals. Nothing is cheap in your tank.

Great vid, great content. I was especially interested in the fact you don’t glue tge plugs down. Great idea especially as they grow, clash colour etc Beautiful tank Regards Duzzy🇦🇺

Awesome just subbed

You have one of the most beautiful reef tanks and Zoa gardens I’ve ever seen! Also a very helpful video, as my 11 year old son and I are finally trying our hand at keeping a reef tank (26 gallon Red Sea MAX Nano tank) and Zoa’s are at the top of our list to have in the tank. We need all the advice we can get at this point! One quick question for you….. Are there any Zoa varieties that you find to be difficult to keep, or that you would not recommend to a beginner? I’ve heard there are some types that are much more finicky than others for whatever reason. Thanks!!!

Your tanq is beautiful 😍 But I think it takes time and patience to keep it that way so amazing Obvious it must also be expensive hahaha 🤭 Congratulations good job 👏

I got a steal on my Rastas. There were about 10 polyps on the plug, and paid $20 for the small colony. Today there are over 20 small polyps. Now to wait for those polyps to get bigger as they are kind of small right now.

Odd question , what sort of GSP are those u have on the back wall ?? Look amazing

These are super colour! do you wont high lighting like for sps

Wow man, your corals look superb, what lights are you running?

Beautiful tank! I was wondering what the coral was between your green sinularia and hammer on the right side of your tank? Maybe a goni? Thnaks

What type of lens / camera do you use to video your tank? It always looks great 👍🏻

Great video at a perfect time for me.... lol. I'm about to embark on a similar mission but have had the polyps separated for quite a while and as such they are many more than i originally had.. ie 6 Rasta polyps became 160... smh.... What do you do when they polyps have grown off the plug and are attached to the rock? I'm thinking of removing the original plug, leaving surrounding polyps to do their thing. then using original parent polyps to start a new colony along their new neighbours.. Probably going to give the Acan/Zoa combo rock a try too.... Cheers buddy!

I think you may need a bigger tank with all them corals :)

I just purchased a bunch of different zoanthids I’m waiting for them to get shipped, I can’t wait to get my tank to look like this it’s amazing, I’m using two China black boxes set at 30% white and 30% blue, do you think that’s a good setting for them? I also have a Duncan and a blasto in my tank as well, my Duncan is starting to grow more heads witch is a good sign in my opinion

I got 2 new frags of zoas 3 weeks back. One had 2 polyps the other had 3. The one with 2 now has 4 and the one with 3 now has 5. Pretty good growth, can’t wait to see if it gets even faster as they settle down.

I am really curious to see your original aquascape it would be nice if you made a video how you started and how did you plan your aquascpe and vision you had before starting it

Really pretty.. im gonna try out in my tank. Btw.. what is the orange plating coral behind the zoa?

@eat sleep reef beautiful tank and great video, thank you! What nitrate levels do you try to keep along with that .03 phosphate?

NOICE

My favorite zoo garden!!!! I’m just starting mine!! It’s gona be crazy if it all works out. Only issue I seem to be having is slower growth? Maybe from the low nutrient system. So I’m going to feed more reef roids and see how it goes. Any recommendations on good sellers of some of these outstanding zoas?

what a dream tank! its gorgeous. do you feed reef roids directly too them or do you dose the tank? I would love to see a video of you feeding this tank :)

👀 I have so much to learn

WOW! Awesome idea of keeping on plugs to frag and move! Do you have huge frag plugs? There must be so much magnifaction going on because its hard to believe these are on plugs! Is a flat 3 inch plug good? Is the big pink center on left beauty and the beast? How do you keep monti cap at same par?

Just curious, have you tried pulling one of those zoa frags off like you mentioned? Pretty sure they’ve grown into the rock by now as well so you’d essentially be fragging that zoa if you pulled the plug to move it.

Fantastic Reef, Well Done, what's the all green coral to the left of your Acans.

Your colors are beyond amazing! Do you use orange filter under actinics when getting these shots?? And how do you manage your nutrients with roids at twice weekly?

Tank is looking great! Which lens filter did you use and did you color grade this video? I was comparing this one to your previous reef roids video and I see a lot of changes.

I picked up s ome liverock that had quite a few tonga branches and, shaped rock. I cant use i n sandbed to make bridges or anything so i have them up against the back glass and a overhang connecting them. That means the corals arent going to get direct lights shinning down on them(except overhang) since they are placed vertically. Looks gorgeous but cant seem to get par meter to work so not sure of par so therefore havnt glued anything down. There are some spots that would get direct light participially the overhang so thought of putting other corals in those spots. I also thought of making this a zoa/mushroom garden. Do you think that is a good idea since they would grow verically and not get direct light? Would the shrooms grow over them? I love shrooms and know they can over take a tank so not sure where else to put them!

Great info! Do you think having a few Nitrates and Phosphates in the water column helps as well?

I started with 1 Bam Bam and ended up with a colony of over 150 to 160
