Corals are one of the nicest things to see and to keep in an aquarium, but all corals must be kept and nurtured in
good conditions that are safe and near to their natural habitat as possible. At Coralz, all our corals are fragged
carefully as to not upset the main colony and individual coral as best as we can. All our corals are then separated and
left to heal for many weeks along with giving them iodine and other foods.
With all Zoanthids they contain a toxin called Polytoxin which is a poisonous liquid substance. This is a bacterial food
that feed the Zoanthids to help them grow along with light.
It should be avoided at all costs when exposed to skin, open wounds, eyes & mouth as can cause skin rashes,
numbness, paralysis, blindness and sickness. With this in mind, Coralz take all precautions to limit this risk by
wearing & using the appropriate equipment to care for and frag the corals. We also ship these to you the best way
we know, in clean waterproof containers, containing well rested corals. When being handled, they should be treated
with respect and carefulness, because corals can leave a residue or squirt out liquids from there polyps or mouths.
Coralz or any other parties associated with us, cannot be held responsible for any misuse or undue care of
corals once they are in your possession. If you have any questions on how to care for your corals, please contact us
beforehand, and we will be more than happy to help. If in the unfortunate instant something was too happy to you
from the coral, please seek medical assistance or professional help asap.
Corals are a pleasure to have, and by fragging, sharing and growing them we can save the amount that is taken out
of the sea, so that future generations to come can experience the wonders of the sea.
