Find your zoa
Search by morph name, alias or colour and discover what’s available across the UK.
HOW IT WORKS
We don’t sell zoas.
We help you find them.
Zoa Scan brings zoanthids available from UK retailers and fellow keepers into one clear catalogue. Find the morph you want, compare the offers, then go directly to the source or list your own captive-grown frag for the community.
FOUR SIMPLE STEPS
Find it. Compare it.
Go direct.
Compare the offer
See price, availability, polyp count and seller details together, with useful context intact.
Go direct
Retailer offers link straight to the original sales website. Zoa Scan doesn’t handle the checkout or take a cut.
List your frag
Got a genuine WYSIWYG, captive-grown frag available? Add your own moderated community listing.
One place to find, compare and list zoanthids across the UK.
OPEN METHODOLOGY
Behind the catalogue
The detail behind how sources are approved, product evidence is preserved and morph matches are labelled.
Discover responsibly
Approved public catalogues are checked at low frequency. Robots instructions, retailer terms, throttling and opt-out status are evaluated before a connector is enabled.
Preserve the source
We keep the original product title, URL, observed price, stock state and evidence timestamp. Full descriptions and unlicensed photographs are not copied.
Normalise cautiously
Punctuation, filler terms, polyp counts and common abbreviations are normalised before names and known aliases are compared.
Match with confidence
Only high-confidence, unambiguous matches are confirmed automatically. Likely, disputed and unidentified records remain visibly labelled.
Compare factually
Total price and price per polyp are shown only when the retailer supplies a usable count. Delivery and WYSIWYG context remain visible.
Notify once
Alert evidence is fingerprinted so an unchanged offer does not produce repeated service emails.
Matching confidence
Verified
Strong alias/source evidence and no meaningful conflicting identity.
Likely
Good evidence, but trade-name variation or photography prevents certainty.
Disputed
Competing names or identities are in active use; they are not silently merged.
Unidentified
A working catalogue record awaiting better evidence.
Organic and sponsored results
Organic offer rankings are computed without sponsorship. Paid placements sit in labelled, visually separated areas and never change an unlabeled price order. Zoa Scan does not calculate affiliate commission or take a share of coral sales.
Corrections are part of the method
Retailers, photographers, breeders and hobbyists can submit corrections, rights information or opt-out requests. Evidence and administrative decisions are retained in an audit history.
