Zoa Lovers.....check this out!

[reefermadness]

I can't believe the colours.....yellow, black, purple and red. I've never seen one similar.......super HOT, IMO! Wish I had a macro lens. I believe they came from tonga......wish I had more but this 6 polyp frag was all I found at the LFS. I can only hope they are good growers.

I have some and they grow well. They are often found growing right beside orange bam bam. That's where I got mine, right mixed with my 2 orange bam bam colonies. They seem to need a lot of light as they only took of when I put them near the top of the tank under my metal halide and in good flow. The orange bam bam have also grow well in these conditions and they were having trouble in lesser light.

I always thought they were morph of the orange bam bam somehow because they seamed to grown out of the same matte the bam bam were growing from. Also I had some ever prettier with those ones at the bottom of the pic with the green tentacles but I lost those :(

Definitely similar but I'm not convinced its the same. Those centers are more green vs. the real obvious yellow on my morph. Also these guys are small.....small by zoa standards.

Yup, goblins fire is definitely different than what you have. I had goblins fire at one time. These were my goblins fire

This is definitely the closest. It might be lighting though but my skirts are red and those look orange.

Atomic zoas at Neptunes Cove.

Ive seen them a few times here around town . I have bought a few frags that have since melted on me. I have also not been able to keep the intense yellow/green center . It always faded out in time.

A very nice zoa though.
