Black with yellow specks ID please

I just picked this up from Reef Raft USA.

The guy just fragged it from a colony right next to a colony of RDPE. Just wondering if it's a morph or something else.
Thanks guys!

Bump?

Nice looking zoa! Have you tried here:

CoralPedia.com :: Zoanthids, Palys

Thanks for the reply matty! I couldn't find anything on them. Oh well. I'll just let them growout and not worry about a name.

Yeah color morphs of zoa's can be hard to pin down. I have some that look like those but are a grey color around the mouth. I would say they are a PE morph because of the green mouth and shape.

 

[ptboy6]

Oh. Cool. Yeah they're about the size of a PE.

Check through zoanthids.com hall of fame they look similar to one I've seen there before.

Sorry I just checked. They look like goldrush PE.

When you grow them out lmk is be interested in some.

cool. Thanks for the id. I don't know how long it'll be before they growout to a good size. It's only 1 polyp now.

 

[jbsmurf]

no worries im patient. Look forward to seeing things come along for you!

 

[ptboy6]

Cool. Thanks. I'll hit you up when it's frag-able.

Sorry didn't see your post till now. I wasn't able to find the Jumbotron pe pictures. I'm just gonna assume that they are Goldrush pe for now. Thanks for the reply.

 

[mainereefer]

not a goldrush. looks like a juvi marshian paly which is a morph of a dingdang type paly

 

[caudill187]

Might be a ding dang morph. They can do weird things under different conditions. I have some that look like that.

 

[caudill187]

Oh. Some one beat me to it.

 

[ptboy6]

Oh, Ok. Thanks guys for chiming in. I've noticed they've turned greener and having a more white face. I did get a new polyp and they seem to be growing at a good pace. I'll post another photo to compare when the lights come on.
