Zoanthid??

Hi all! I got 2 polyps of this on a frag of zoa. The guy I got it from has no idea why it is, nor do I! Any experts out there who could enlighten me?

Thanks! It’s the white flower looking thing

That’s a clove polyp my dude. Cheers!

 

[Doglips56]

Thank you! I will look them up

Here are some pics of mine (not the giant purpleish colony, that’s xenia) they are quite pretty! Not too fast spreading IME and adapt to the flow conditions (more flow=fuzzier polyps. See how the red clove and the rainbow clove are different fuzzinesses?) they also have a great feeding response! Great addition to your tank IMO

Very pretty! I can’t see too much of the feathering yet. I have 3 polyps not 2, just noticed lol. I think it is beautiful. I just wanted to ID so I can caste for it properly. Very excited to get an unexpected extra!

Mine took about a month to fluff up to that size, grew it from maybe 8-10 polyps into that in maybe 2 months. Starting to frag it out and sell now!

Nice freebie! I've been wanted to get some clove polyps. I love the coloration of them.
