I'd love to cultivate a thread of scientific evidence (or at least well written and verifiable info) on zoa/paly* Re: Feeding, IDing, care, disease, propagation, etc. Obviously there will be a fair amount of cross over in various resources I'll try and file stuff by it's most prominent topic.
*At the Marine aquarist level.
I'll start:
Identification
How to definitively tell the difference between zoa and paly
Hint: You probably can't. A break down of why it's so hard to ID "zoa" and "paly"
Miscellaneous finds:
Zoa morphs blending
Zoa can blend/bleed colors into each other, while very cool, it's likely not permanent.
Overviews and blended discussion
Useful General Overview
Goes over a lot of basics without muddying nthe water too much.
Article covering care and identification
An overview of husbandry and care.
Pest treatments and remediation
Zoa pest treatments
Info contained above is generally anecdotal in nature however it sums up a lot of similar reports found on treatment for pests such as zoa eating Nudi (nudibranch)
