Hi all,
Please help me to ID this guy. Bought this from one of Utahreefs member here. But he doesn't know what is the name either. I love this zoa, but it would be nicer if I know its' name. Your help is highly appreciated

Not sure but if that's what gorilla nipples look like, they have rather nice nipples. Lol ------------- My ocean. 90g (yup, won it!), 40g, 28g, & 10g Systems PADI Advanced Open Water http://utahreefs.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=63568&title=krazies-nano-paradise" rel="nofollow - Tank Thread: |

I don't know what it is other than a zoa\paly. If you ever frag it I want to be first in line assuming I can afford it.  ------------- 90 gal reef w/refugium 24 gal softie tank 11 gal nano anemone tank 5 gal fresh water |

Hi Reefer4Ever,
One day I will learn how to frag them properly, I have killed many other zoas while I attempted to do so. But FYI....the last zoa was so pretty under LED Blue, the color just popped out so amazing. That is why I really want to know the name of this beauty (IMO)

I completely concur with you as that color in the photo is amazing. I have enough blues and greens now I want reds and oranges of various corals. It needs a wee bit of balance. ------------- 90 gal reef w/refugium 24 gal softie tank 11 gal nano anemone tank 5 gal fresh water |
