There are so many names for Zoas I am confused. I've purchased 2 frags from a chain petshop and gotten some beautiful orange ones, and a frag with beautiful orange ones and peach-colored long-stemmed palys. I'm stepping off for a while and seeing what they do. I have learned to not buy a frag of closed polyps from (national chain here) - I did not want palys but they are doing so well I don't want to dump them.

BTW - hope they grow! They will look amazing.

If the lashes are green, then some people call these watermelon zoas. They are a variety of eagle eye zoas.

Honestly, I see these names as a way to provide some form of reference for people when I post frags. I find that some are different between regions .... so take this for what its worth....
