Picked these up and just red ring zoas with purple base. Then they developed the green skirt. Looks like a cross between purple hornet and red hornet
Enjoy!

Those are PHE's I believe. Purple Hearted Emeralds.
 
aah thank you very much for id, wasnt sure
 
They are one of my all time favorites!
 
+1 on PHEs. Depending on lighting, the red ring can fade and even disappear, yielding "jokers." From everything I've heard, those two are one in the same...
 
nice little colony there, i had some and they did like a little less intense light, with more intense light they were not as purple and the skirts were not as bright.
 
Right now they are about 3 feet from a 250w 20k radium and off to the side. Ill try them with even a bit more shade to see if the colors increase
Thanks guys
 
I saw this post earlier on my phone and was gonna mention they were PHE's, looks like i'm late to the party. The are an awesome zoa, very nice colony, with great color.
