Thanks, any idea on the pink one?

Would it be a palythoa or Zoanthids?

Peppa Pig and Monster Mash! That is what I would call them. I think people name zoas names for marketing...

I had some Mint Chocolate Chip once, and some Orange Dreamcicle.

Hard to tell but look similar to Playboy Bunnies but that's a tough angle.

Those marketing names are a funny stuff. Thanks for the help.

I thought it could have been palythoa due to the bigger size. So good to know they are zoa. They are quite pretty.

It would be large polyped zoanthids. Palythoa generally have thinner tentacles ending in a sharp tip, and incorporate substrate into their flesh.

To be clear, I do not know if they are palys or zoas. It is difficult to be scientific based on photos on the interweb. I am just posting my opinion...
