Why you tanking it down? I see you have true alien eyes, I haven't seen to many people over the last few years that have them. I got a colony of about 50 polyps that I almost lost about 2 months ago.....Good looking tank you have AQ.
Ty Az, I am taking it down for the simple fact that i dont want to maintain 2 systems anymore. Costs and time pretty much decided for me. I always really liked this tank alot, i will miss it.
I got those alien eyes for next to nothing from a shotty ebay seller in florida, they are carib zoos, I have had very slow growth from them.
I have had issues with Caribbean zoas, but those are doing great and 3 other colonies I have. I have lost about 10 Caribbean zoas over the last year or so, they seem to be a finicky zoanthid.
Here they are at night photographed with flash. They aren't Z. giganteus, but have more striping than any PE I've ever seen. I've seen a couple other newer morphs show this characteristic, must be a new type/species in the hobby?
Well if James Reimer is correct then they would be Z. gigantus since that was one of the main characteristics for a polyp being that species.....Those are pretty sweet and yes that is some of the boldest lines I have seen yet on a polyp.
Nope neither, the outside band on these is more of a light pink lavender color......I still have yet toget some PPRPE.....I have Desert Fox and these are a bit smaller then those....
Well this tank is rather new and needs to grow in yet. I have no pics of the right side yet because it is rather sparse but here are two pics of the left side. I also am trying to get used to the new camera which really has no white ballance... The colors in the second pic are a little washed because the sun was hitting part of the tank..
