Tracking and ID'ing zoas/palys

[Bleigh]

Hey ya'll,

So, I was trying to put together a list of my corals and I realized that calling my zoas/palys, the pink zoa, the other pink zoa, the bright pink zoa, etc, is probably not going to be sustainable. ;Wideyed I was hoping that you guys could help me figure out more appropriate name for them. (I also have this issue with a few acans, not sure if those have names like zoa's an palys do to keep track of color variation).

I will number them to help keep track of which one everyone is talking about. If you need more pictures, let me know, and I will try to provide them as well.

(1) I call these these the other pink zoas and they are currently mad at me... I suspect they may be getting stung by the frogspawn, but I have no other place to put them until the new tank is set up.

(2) I call these the pink zoas on a clam. (The snail has been super glued shut.)

(3) I call these the purple zoas. They are super shy and close up for any reason. (They also open back up.)

(4) Called the green and blue zoas currently:

(5) Currently called the orange zoas in the back.

(6) Currently called the greenish palys:

(7) Currently called the christmas looking palys (They are red with green stripes, not sure if that picture picked up on that.)

(8) The paint splattered palys. In the moon light led's, the pink spots look like they are glowing and it's gorgeous.

I think that's all the zoas/palys I have in my tank that I'm calling by their location and or color.

Thanks in advance fo all the help!

Thank ya'll writing these down! May take a little while to get use to calling them another name. I am def going with Fairy dust though. I like that!
