Agreed, don't take the names to seriously. When ever I refer to something I generally add the term "morph" after it. There are COUNTLESS varieties of zoanthids out there, all of them will change appearance depending on environmental conditions.

No the color isn't right, jokers have a very bright velvety green dial similiar to nuclear greens and Ppe:)
