Wa is a zoa and paly loving state thats for sure lol most everyone collects them here. I fight it some times those are orange they don't look to be bleached exspecially in person they are orange. I have a few in my tank and they are doing great BTW thanks.

i am so glad i traded a frag to u justin so u and i can tell if it will stay orange or will it turn red....?.....either way i love it...i love magicians!....most polyps are still not ready to distribute yet...but once they are all happy..i will start sharing/trading it

READ AGAIN

i just bought this new palys...they called it aussie orange palys...i knew right away that they are a morph of magicians...anyways,IT LOOKED BLEACHED but some have full colors but the color doesnt look like my old magicians...​

THANK U

Hmm, I'm the only one you attacked about that... READ AGAIN.

hence making a red coral look orange.

I see it all the time with people's RPEs. They buy them thinking they just scored some slightly bleached (or even think they're not bleached) Orange Envys but the color comes back to that brick-red or crimson red, depending on the grade, every time. This is the same thing. They're not definitely a morph of Magicians, but rather possibly. That's all I'm getting at.

Look at Wobbegong's pic; see how the bottom ones have more color than the top ones and have more of a red hue than their lighter upstairs neighbors? That's what makes it clear that they're bleached (I'll bet it's too much light, since the top ones are more stressed and thus more bleached), and that's the RED coming back to the regular Magicians. Look, Magicians are great--I love mine--and I'd love to see (and have!) Orange Magicians, but nobody has yet displayed any definite ORANGE ones here, only POSSIBLY orange. We'll see when the color comes back on the OP's colony, when they don't look almost translucent from lack of the necessary symbiotic algae.

Until then, just keep to the unwritten book of reefing that calls for not selling things like that--sick corals--as "special" high-priced specimens. As of yet, we don't know if they're "rare Orange Magicians"; they're sick possibly-orange Magicians but certainly shouldn't be sold as such when it's not known, and, for that matter, fragged in this more sensitive state. I see this all the time too, people selling bleached RPEs as Orange Envys or just "bright RPEs" and getting big bucks for them... It's not right.

You ASKED for our take on it, and that's my unbiased opinion. UNBIASED. OPINION. Key words.

 

[ladyreefer1983]

well honestly i dont need your tutorial ms. know it all...to me they LOOK LIKE A MORPH of magicians...i sell magicians like almost $5 a polyp,,ask our local reefers...i didnt say i paid big bucks for this hence ill charge $200 a polyp...im not making this as a big deal...i am excited as i got a different color than my other magicians,i know its bleached...thats why i said it should color up more....as a zoa collector finding a nice morph like this is overwhelming but i dont think about making money out of it...i have colonies,mini colonies of zoas that i grew from a frag and even just from a polyp...so thinking bout $$$ is out of my mind...

i did trade to lvsuckerfish so we will see and he can say too once it colored up what really is the color....

youre the only one i attacked?what do u think?we obviously had bad past together...and we definitely hate each other...W-H-Y A-R-E Y-O-U H-E-R-E I-N M-Y T-H-R-E-A-D?????dont tell me youre giving a friendly comment??????

im done with u so dont ruin my thread......

i am gonna do an update thread on this "possibly" orange magicians....my point here is that i got it as aussie orange palys....i got 55+ polyps and for sure i didnt paid thousand bucks for it...i started this thread to share and ask opinions(but not cocky opinions) about it....I DID COMPARED IT TO MY OTHER MAGICIANS WHICH I INCLUDED A GOOD REPRESENTATION PIC...I DIDNT OVERLY DESCRIBED THE PALYS....I EVEN MENTIONED THEY ARE BLEACHED...

Plus i am no expert...i am just a zoa collector:d

===i just trimmed the rock its on as theres a bunch of unwanted things....i trimmed it really gently not causing any harm....the frags that opened up i traded to FRIENDS....to see what color it will turn out in different tanks....and just in case it will not do good in my tank at least theres back ups....

though if the orange pigment color stays...then my friends will have my luck
