Thanks Tang,

I checked out the Flaming PPRPE, it wasn't defined there. I didn't think to drop the Flaming.

Still think they are going to be FPPRPE when they settle their color...

I'm going to put them on ebay, is it fair to call them FPPRPE's?

These have only been captive zoanthids for about a week. I expect the colors to come out more. But there is always the chance that they won't. I've been concentrating on picking the unusual zoanthids as they come through. I really appreciate every ones help with identifying known from unknown.

I would be cautious with the white spots on the above polyps. They look very familiar to what zoa-pox looks like when it first starts out.

Thanks for the heads up ficklefins. I'll hold off a couple days on the EBay listing. I don't think that is the case, but I'll keep an eye on them.

No, those polyps never developed any pox.

Thanks Tang,

I'm trying to get the identification down. From pictures I've seen those specs are a long shot...

I'm debating to dose the frag tank or just keep any eye on them.

Any one have thoughts? I want to release frags, but I don't want to release pest.

Zoapox. I just substitute tank water taken from the display tank instead of RO/DI from this article. less stress using tank water than RO/DI.
