I got all of these within the past week, thought I'd share some pictures.
Hope you enjoy them!








Obviously some haven't totally opened yet. But they are looking good IMO!

Hey they look GREAT WAX!!

You have gotten me into these now. You have such beautiful colors of them. Can you post a good close up of your tank so I can see where you are placing them?

I just looked at that site I emailed you as I thought I might place an order and their frag packs are GONE now!! Were they gone when you looked? oh I know you bought them all

They still had some when I looked, but I didn't buy any from them.
I'll post up a shot showing where they are in a bit, but basically along the front in the sand for now. I like to let them settle in to the tank before deciding where to put them.

Here ya go:

Note that most of these are small frags. The big colony on the right is about 5 or 6 inches across for reference.
Believe it or not there are 13 different frags in that picture plus the big colony.

The so called "names" of zoanthids mean nothing to me, but I think it is what some ppl call "Mean Greens". Once it settles in I'll see.

That was actually from online, if that was from my LFS it would've been 45 or less. He doesn't usually get real nice colors though. The blue frag is from my LFS and it was $60.

Tub's Blues: $60 LFS frag

Purple with Pink mouth: attached to the blue frag, I cut it off

Very nice wax i just got a few more my self. I have these i want to frag out and dont know really how to frag them out. There is about 100 or more on each of the rock. What is the best way to either remove some or something? I dont know if you might be intrested in them but they are awsome under atinics.

If I didn't already have some I would be.
Probably the easiest way on that rock is to CAREFULLY rubberband a small rock to the large one. Right up next to a polyp or two... eventually the polyps will grow over the small rock... then you take a razor and slice the connection where the two meet.

Thanks Sam. I think I was lucky, none of the regulars at my LFS really digs zoanthids like I do, so they tend to sit a few days.

Sure post em up!
Here's one of my little colonies like yours:

"Eagle Eye" Zoanthids
This little one has 4 polyps and I have another that has 12 polyps, but I think I mushed one polyp today when I was doing a little rearranging... it isn't open. I hope it recovers, it was the largest polyp!
