Thought Id post my new Zoo's I got two weeks ago. I got a decent sized colony of 60-80 and a couple small frag's. All is going great and they seem to be doing wonderful. I wonder if anyone could ID the brownish tan colored ones for me? The look kinda ugly amongst the blue/red and greens.



Thanks for viewing...

The blue/red/green ones look to be eagle eye zoa's.
Note this should not be a violation, they do not sell. It is only a ID site. If it is, sorry
{EDIT: most unfortunately, they are sponsored by stores, sorry...Ophiura}

the red polyps are known in the uk as "wham n watermellon" and a.k.a red eagle eye. they are a lovely polyp i just think that either due to your water or your lights, these red polpys have faded abit.

Thanks for commenting. I have 50/50 powercompacts and used my canon 580ex flash when photographing them to get good exposures. Im sure the color is not exactly as they should be. The two to three weeks ive had them they already have new polyps growing so things must be going well for them. i had piece break off the main colony a few days after putting them in the tank and has already taken to filling the empty spaces. I really have been trying to get all the proper care needed to aid in them.
