Eagle Eyes.

IMO eagle eyes and whammin watermelons pretty much the same thing.
But when the whammin watermelon name came out, it was usually reserved for the deeper color polyps, and again it's just my opinion, a way to charge more.

I've got a single Dragon eye in the middle of my colony too!

Thank you for this thread! Finally it's being acknowledge that the same corals are sold under different names at completely different prices depending on who the SELLER is. I love the exclusives or new releases.

Where's the option for zoas/palys all look the same? LOL

These are my eagles eyes that i got around 2002 - 2004. It's been a long time and this photo was under halides.

Jumping in added to the fun. These are my eagle eyes. Had them forever. They grow like weeds for me I couldn’t even give these away for free when I had a ton. LOL!

SPS247 · Feb 11, 2019

I voted yes the blue Led lights make the skirt more yellow if your running heavy blues.

Agreed, these were my eagle eyes back in the day. Let's just all agree that the OP's zoas are Eagle Radioactive Dragon watermelon eyes zoas.

Look like Skywalkers to me...

I lost them in the great dino outbreak of '18.

Fastest growing zoa I've ever kept.

SashimiTurtle · Feb 11, 2019

These are my "watermelons"... got a few morphs in there as well.

To me the name is just superficial. If I see something I like I buy it. I do not care if it is a super special eagle watermelon radioactive eye ball or not. It just happens that the prettier ones have names.

Reeferguy365 · Feb 12, 2019

I voted yes for two reasons first if you look at pictures online there are so many different variations that say eagle eyes.. second I want that badge LOL

these are mine

Ya'll are destroying years of delusions here! I don't guess I've ever seen real Eagle Eyes. They must not be as common as I thought!

So what are these? (Ignore the algae ridden bivalve....I kind of like him there)

I didn't even notice zoas in that top pic! Drool drool drool

mch1984 · Feb 12, 2019

I vote no, just based off what my eagle eyes look like. But like other said, I guess if the lighting or filters used were right.

Jacked Reefer · Feb 12, 2019

It’s like Green Bay packers and Miami hurricane, which is which? But eyes have bright green skirts and nobody can change my mind. Yellow zoas are never free lol.
