I’m trying to identify this coral but it seems like coral names are contingent upon what’s in some guy’s bong or his latest x-file show.

I’ve looked up descriptions and found the following to match VERY closely with what I have in order of likelihood:

1. Eagle eye - it has the blue border between the orange/red oral disk or mouth prior to bright green lashes.
2. Watermelon Zoas
3. Candy Apple Zoas

Pics in order: Eagle eyes, actual Zoas in questions, watermelon, candy apples

All different names for the same zoa. Most common is eagle eyes so that's the name I go with.

yep same zoo different names. Mostly known as eagle eyes and grow like a pest. Candy apple reds are different and those in the last pic are not candy apple reds.

Thanks. I appreciate the feedback. Always on point. The last ones are from aquarium depot. I thought they were reputable.
