I’ve had these zoas for over two years and STILL haven’t found the name. This is the best pictures I’ve been able to take. Anybody out there know these?
 
I have one of these in my tank as well, was listed simply as "orange colony polyp" when I purchased it, was never able to get an ID but it grows well
 
They look pretty similar to mine, I was told they were “heartbreaker zoas” but in my ID thread I was told just an “assorted zoa”. So I just call them heartbreakers. Though in your first pic they don’t look as similar. Second one is what I was referring to

Looks close but yours have a very distinct circle between two commas look (o). Mine have solid rings surrounding the center like stars. Yours look great, btw!

I see what you’re saying. Yours is more a complete “nebula” look while mine is a broken oval type. Still yours look awesome, hopefully someone can ID. I got a suggestion mine might be fire and ice but I don’t think they are. No blue. Yours look almost icy in that first pic.
 
@uhgster1 What you have there are 'ring of fire' zoas. They've also been rebranded by cherry corals as 'chemical romance.' They are similar to, but different from, alpha and omegas because they lack blue.

THANK YOU!!! It’s been gnawing at me for years!
