Bought a couple months back but never got the name of zoa. Anything would be appreciated

That 2nd photo is pretty sweet! It's tough to get that orange ring in pictures.

So they go by two names. Jason Fox (JF) calls them Powerhouses. Golden Basket (GB) calls them Tiger Hornets. They usually are smaller sized polyped zoanthids compared to most other zoas, but aren't as small as micro zoa. They're great growers once established, so give them plenty of growing room. If you ever kept a zoanthid morph called WWC Twizzlers, their growth rate is about the same. The orange stripes/ bandings is really cool, and the center is a deep blue.

Here are my Tiger Hornets:

Here's two different Eagle Eye zoanthid strains for comparison. They don't have the tiger striping pattern ring and the blue isn't as deep of a color.

Maybe Flame War?
 
They look just like my WWC dragonball zoas. I'm sure there are lots of different names for them depending on what vendor you got them from.
