Captain Jerk Palythoa is a hardy, eye-catching zoanthid morph featuring bold green, yellow, and orange tones around a deep contrasting center. Its polyps grow in tight clusters, creating a vibrant mat that stands out under both white and blue lighting. Care is simple: provide moderate lighting, low to moderate flow, and stable reef-safe parameters. Place it on rockwork where it can spread naturally. Feed occasional small meaty foods or coral nutrition for faster growth. Like all palythoa, handle with care—avoid cutting or scraping without proper protection due to palytoxin risk. Ideal for beginners and mixed-reef tanks.
