I got 20 of the ones in the first pic for 40.00. This is a pic of them, they look exactly like yours but the pic shows them more lime green then they are. The eyes are bluer then my pic shows also.

Hi - I just upgraded my lighting to get some softies... but i think zoos don't need thatmuch light. Am I right? Also, those frags in the first pics are tiny - so cool - but small. How quickly do they spread? My lfs has some cool tiny frags they sell for around $12-15. is that a good deal?
Thanks - awesome pics everyone!

Hey RabidFrog what are those zoos called in the last pic. I have some of those and they are fast growers. They are taking over, they are everywhere even growing up the back glass. I have a frag I will be bringing to the next frags swap if you can call it a frag it is about 4"X4". It's at the bottom right of this pic.

Jealous? Mission accomplished!
I just started my tank and still waiting for my lr and ls to come in. What kind of lighting do you need to have zoos? They are my favorite coral so far and I'd like to have some, but right now I only have two 36" 10,000K Daylight & True Actinic double lamps (42 watts each). Is that enough?

That should be fine. Zoo's are not a high light demanding coral. The only thing that makes the biggest difference is kelvin spectrum. They look totally diff. under 14k vs. 10k.
