So far I only have one Zoa coral but I really want to try get more. I’m still a beginner so I’m fairly new. Should I wait and see if I can handle this coral first before buying any new ones ? I bought Reefroids for my corals. I heard it’s great food for corals.

Your zoas should get all of the nutrients it needs from normal feeding. As you progress, and add more demanding corals(LPS/SPS), you should look at feeding the corals directly. When I feed my corals, I do target the zoas, but I have a massive colony. In my opinion, unless you have other, more demanding corals, I would hold off on the coral specific feeding until the coral population demands it. Just one guys opinion.

Thanks for the advice ! So I don’t need to feed my Zoa directly yet ? Also if you see in the picture I posted it shows my hermit crab eating something off my coral? I took him away from the coral because I was afraid it going to eat my soft coral.
