VERIFIED IDENTITY

Rasta Zoa / Rasta Zoanthid

Rasta is a named zoanthid morph recorded in the Zoa Scan UK zoanthid catalogue. It is also recorded under the alias Rastas. Its observed colour profile combines a orange centre, blue body or oral disc and green skirt, arranged in a concentric pattern. These recorded traits help reefkeepers compare specimens, although appearance can vary with aquarium lighting, photography and colony condition. Zoa Scan records this morph as easy in difficulty, with moderate lighting and low–moderate water flow, together with a moderate growth rate. These care details are catalogue observations rather than guarantees, so stable reef conditions and gradual acclimation remain important. Use this profile to identify Rasta zoanthids, compare current UK retailer observations and review captive-grown community frags. Check the complete colour pattern and available source evidence rather than relying on the trade name alone.

Identification is not a safety test

A zoanthid trade name does not indicate whether palytoxin is present. Use appropriate precautions and read the responsible reefkeeping safety guide.
