cant get true colors, but they are small polyps. they are darker than what is shown in pic.

 

[extremehobbyist]

look like blue hornets

Those are zoas! J/K get on coral pedia they look like black holes suns might be black hornets though CoralPedia.com :: Black Hole Sun or CoralPedia.com :: Black Hornets first is the black hole suns the second is the black hornets.

They look like black hole suns because the whole inner part of the ring is white not just the mouth.

 

[reefpeeper]

the pic does not show the true color. the inside mouth area is actually a light blue. outer near skirt is darker than blue

 

[Reed639]

blue hornets for sure

 

[Gitsoe]

Black hornets have a yellow ring with a tealish green in the center.

Mine is the two polyp frag

 

[Gitsoe]

the way they are growing look like black hornets but is there a line in the mouth area ?

 

[reefpeeper]

What do u mean a line?

 

[Gitsoe]

like a blue hornet or black hole, that line that breaks the white circle around the mouth

 

[reefpeeper]

No line

 

[Gitsoe]

can you get a better closer shot?

 

[reefpeeper]

looks like BHS to me.Certainly not a black hornet.

 

[reefpeeper]

the polyps are super small.

 

[ddiver]

the polyps are super small.

yea, mine were like that..

If I were just giving an off-the-cuff guess, I'd say BHS. Size can be highly affected by water conditions/light. My BHS were really small when I got them. Now under Radiums in my zoa dominated frag tank they have probably doubled in size. It's not a bad thing to have the Black Holes. In my opinion I like them better than the Black Hornets anyway.

Not saying it's a bad thing. I think there awsome either way. I guess i will have to see if they get bigger. I have only had the for a week anyway. Thanx

Think that's my frag. Those are black hole suns. The black hornets are slightly different.

 

[OhYeah]

I say black hole suns
