Very bright yellow and orange with a light orange center (mine lost it). Please post pics, info for best care or any story about these beautiful zoas!

<Adding to must have list.... done>

Those are great!
 
Close to Halloween so thought I'd make this a zombie thread . Older pic of mine, counted em today and actually 70 or so polyps. One of my favorites. (Sorry for the blue) started with 2 heads about 9 months ago

I sold a few of these at our local fragtoberfest. Sold out actually. Very cool not overly expensive zoa. I don't have any good pics but they don't seem to mind a little higher light.

Actually i found one. Right in the middle.

You could try a quick peroxide dip. Be careful and only do a 3-5 min dip, in 50/50 peroxide and tank water. This has worked for me in the past, but can be kind of hard on the polyps. I like the quick fix as much as the next guy, but maybe try to figure out the algae problem and fix that as well.
 
How much light do these guys like?


Mine are at the bottom of my 24" tall tank that has the light hanging about 6-8" above the water surface. I think someone in this thread said they seem to do well in other light intensities as well. My lights are T5/LED combo.
 
Just plucked these off some live rock at the local store last week. They looked blah under the lights at the store but could see the potential.
