Hi guys. Picked these up from my LFS. Any idea of a name? They are a very light powder blue with a brownish yellow skirt.

I have a frag of blue tubbs the ones in question are much lighter. Pic of my tubbs and the new ones below for comparison. They lacklthe white mouth typical to tubbs. I'm assuming this is either a lighter version or an unnamed species?

Could also be lighting. When in higher light, zoas develop much brighter colors. In low light, they become more drab. I personally think it’s a not named wild colony

The bottom pic looks like tubbs blues, the top doesn’t... top pic is laser lemons

Both are under an AI Prime HD in a 5 gallon tank. Lighter zoas have been in for a week, tubbs for 3+ months.

Oh interesting.

how often do you feed them? My zoas color up a lot and grow faster when on a mysis/reef roids diet

 

[Act1n1c_L1fe]

Oh interesting.

What % is your prime running?

 

[Contrariwise]

Once a week with Reef Chili. The tank is a dedicated zoa garden.

Looks good! If the darker zoas don’t color up, up royal and blues, 2% a week and stop if they start turning white

They should be fine though... they aren’t reaching

Dark blues have been in for 3+ months. Good coloration on all other zoas.
