JPS Mystiques Zoanthids 5p, WYSIWYG Corals
1st few photos are of the WYSIWYG coral on a standard 3/4" Alternative Reef frag plug. The last photo is an example of a grown-out piece or the colony it originated from.
An original from Josh Pork Sandwich himself! We traded very early on with Josh when Legendary Corals was first formed. The deal was to blindly trade a few signature zoanthids with each other. One of the cool signature zoanthids that he sent us were these little gems. With blue splashes all over a black body, this is a handsome little zoa. The center of the mouth is a bright pink and the lashes get a sweet crimson red tip. Since that first trade, we still continue to offer pieces of this morph from the original frag he sent us.
This morph is great for beginners since it's not too fussy about water parameters and is one of our best growers. The polyp size grow very similar to rastas, where they can be smaller under higher light but get larger under lower light as well.

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.
