Yeah, they are freekin awesome, but on a local forum one zoanthid collector reported that he had some quite a few years ago that were exactly like that.

He said they lost color and gradually melted down, and he couldn't figure out why.

I would love to see one of our exprienced members (//pokes marvin) buy these and successfully keep them, they make Tub's Blues look like crap relatively, but I would not attempt them myself hearing the story...

i wouldnt spend 100+ on a 5 polyp frag though. I could get much more bang for my buck(100$) at one of our sponsers and get great coral...JMO

If it lives, that coral could be a cash cow....

 

[jafoca]

that could be, but none of the current blue morphs look much like those at all in my opinion....

so because they're "arfican" they are rarer? i cna' imagine someone there wouldn't be looking to exploit their resources. they kind of look like alien eyes to me

By the way do you guys think it is color enhanced??

Extreme Corals had some for sale too...look like caribbean morphs to me.

What makes them African??

I had something that looks like those before, they came from FL.

I personally think it could be a wholesaler ploy, some of them can be shady......

the top zoas look a bit brighter than the others, and the uniformity of the blue makes me think it's not a completely accurate representation.
