 Topic: Zoa ID?
Posted: January 17 2013 at 9:02pm |
I have a number of zoas in my tank and I'm not sure what any of them are called. Maybe you guys can identify them for me?
I was also curious if any of them are a rare or expensive type, or if everything I have is common.
Thanks for the help!
my pictures were taken with a cell phone, sorry they are a little blurry
here ya go

oh and these aren't zoas, but what are they? (not the hammer coral in the background, the blue soft corals in front)
8
thanks everyone!

The last ones are blue star polyps, I think that's what they are called they spread easily in a lot of tanks so if you don't like a lot of them be sure to contain them to one area. I myself tend to kill them off for some reason and I love them LOL.
Pic #1 looks like a common green/brown paly along with eagle eye zoas
Pic #2 looks like more eagle eyes with green dragons (if I remmeber that name right)

Ya Fatman hooked me up with those on tuesday, he has quite the selection! They are brand new in the tank which is why they are closed up a little bit. They've been opening up a bit more everyday already though :)

Seven is Reverse Gorilla Nipples if it came from my tank. Just needs to find it's place and the colors seem to change do the the light they receive.

You are correct. This one has just been under some intense light and they yellow out.
