The GloRilla Nipple Zoa (Zoanthus sp.) is an explosive, high-contrast designer zoanthid that brings an unbeatable electric glow to the lower reef. Named for its wild, oversized oral cone and vivid street-style palette, this morph features a deep violet to dark blue face disc surrounding a giant, protruding bright neon-green to yellow “nipple” mouth, all encircled by a fringe of long, pulsing orange-red to hot-pink skirts.
Its thick, vibrant oral cone makes it instantly recognizable, standing out even among crowded zoa gardens.
