NOt sure on that one.....Looks like the same type of polyp as the pink elephant and others that have been showing up.....Real nice stuff Zeppelin!
 
Wow Randy, that is quite possibly the prettiest one I have ever seen (that was not photoshopped).
:shock:

That looks really close if not the same thing.I think the ones on zoaid are under different lights and have had time to actlimate to there home.I have a small frag myself that is not doing so good.I hope it will pull through.
 
this is my 4th time getting this color morph. i've decided to keep a piece for myself this time around. it looks good shaded or direct light.

It is hard to be a hobbyist and a retailer at the same time.I find myself not wanting to keep alot of the zoas that come in. :( Have you got any of the blue with green skirt aka Blue Orgasim yet?
 
thanks zepp. :) i like those caribbean blues.

yup randy, got those a few times. i've seen about 5-6 shades of true true blue zoas. the rest i consider phonies due to them needing actinic to pull out the blue color.

the blue/green skirts were one of the suprise zoas in the frag packs that went out early on. i should have kept a few of those for a personal collection. imo, blue green skirt color morph looks better than the blue and red skirt zoas by a long shot. the polyps are alot larger as well..

i got some interesting large irridescent colored zoa polyps mixed in with a green colony. i'm going to try to frag it out of it and grow those out. i can't really say what color it is because it has so many diffrent depending on what angle you look at it.
 
Hey Sam, I snagged a rock of those Asterina looking ones recently too. Haven't checked closely with the ZoaID pics, but that was my first thought as well.

Save some of those iridescent ones for trade, man. I'll send you some stuff! :)
 
Norman,

Nice :) it's a really nice color. i'll hook u up if i can break it off cleanly.. if i can single em out... i'll grow em. they're scattered across the colony. a polyp here and there... i think i saw only 3 of em on the colony...

why is all the cool zoas are mixed with others.Here is Royal Blue with white center zoas that I fraged from a colony.The pictures are crap but you can see the true color of the zoa.

here is a few in the mix that are open.

Heh, nice Randy :)

Isn't it fun for you retail guys... you don't have to settle for just nice, you can go for nice *and* uncommon :) Might as well, since there's not enough room to keep every nice one you find, hahaha.

Thx Sam. No rush. Don't knock yourself out. Just keep me in mind :)

I wish I have 1/2 the collection of cool colored zoas that most of the members have here.Every day I see 1 more that I wish I had :o
