Itsy Bitsy...

While hunting through the macro tank, there were three of these lonely little guys on a piece of lr rubble at my lfs so the guy gave them to me as a freebie.
They are teeny tiny ~ half (if not less) the size of any of the zoa's in my tank. Sorry for the bad picture, but it was kind of hard getting a shot of something so small.
Anyone know the name of these?

Looks like some sun yellow zoas, at least that's what they call the around here
Edit. At first I thought you meant the shrimp...that's what being awake at 1am does to me lol

Hope they get bigger, I love the yellow!

I would have to say they appear to be Parazoanthus gracilis AKA Yellow Colonial Polyps. very hardy, tolerant of most lighting situations and you can feed them if you like. they are photosynthetic as well as being aggressive organismal feeders.

I agree. Peppermints seem to be more of a nuisance than they are help.
