Valentine's Day Massacre - Still Around?

[pugcrush]

I've been wondering about this for a while since this zoa was floating around everywhere a few years ago. It grew OK for me for a few months and then melted. From others, it appears it's happened to them also. I've got a look a like right now, but it's not as big of a polyp as the VDM. Is this zoa still around?

 

[Triggreef]

Me too I have a look alike but its very small. I had what I'm fairly sure was an original and it floated off the plug, was attached to nothing and I couldn't glue it down. I actually found it twice and tried to glue again but 3rd time it floated away I never found it. The color was ridiculously intense, and had a more defined ring than most I see posted. But yeah I haven't seen many other than this lately.

I have one. It was a decent call long but it died back to just one polyp. Hoping it grows back out

Used to have em, melted. Anytime they come up for sale they appear to be fresh imports.
What's the longest anyone has kept them for successfully?

That guy?

Those are awesome

So they melt for no reason

I have an unknown issue in my tank. My zoas grow great for a while, then I lose a ton, then they grow great again.... and so on. I haven't had an issue with them aside from that.
