Yeah, I started off my addiction with darth mauls, sunny d's, utter chaos, woodstocks, and red hornets.

Sold them all after I saw another reefers sps tank and thought, "wow, thats sick!"

Now I am a sps and zoa addict and I have to go and find all the zoas I had but sold again... sucks! :cry:

Its impossible with my phone, to take a fts without losing all detail. Plus my tank is a bow front which makes things even harder...

This is best I could do. :D

Yeah, they are definitely on my top 3 list of zoas in the tank with the space monsters and god of war. The person I bought them from, didnt have a name for them but they look a lot like the desert storm zoas I got from him but mixed with a hawaiian sticky punch. The desert storm zoas in the last pic are killer in person as well. The frag to the left of it are closed but they look like a purple and green version of the blue agave. All of them have crazy neon green pe mouths. :wink:

There could be so many reasons why they are melting and its hard to pinpoint what it is exactly. I have things melt as well, while all my others thrive. Some corals just dont do well in one persons tank but then do great in others. There could be pests that are bugging the zoas as well, always give them a good dip before putting them in the tank. Dose vitamin c as I find it helps with the overall health of znp's. I put 1000ml tablet in the morning and another one at night, straight into the sump and have it disolve by itself. Dont put powder straight into the sump though as it may make your skimmer go bonkers, always dilute it in water first. I also feed lots and have several different powdered food I mix in with the frozen. Light and flow also play parts in the happiness of zoas, some like flow and light, while others like no flow and shade. Honestly, I think you just have to play around with the setup until everything is happy and just learn from any mistakes, Ive made tons but as long as you learn from them, you can always bounce back and do it right the next time. :wink:

thats from a recent wild collection, if you have a daylight pic i can prob get you an id , but out of that whole shipment(which went everywhere in north america) most have no names. i believe it is from an aussie shipment:)


google hhrc it may be close but its hard to tell because of the actinics.


i have all the zoos that came in on that order, ive noticed several people in different proivinces and states looking for ids.....some have recently hit coralpedia.


in most of the species the colors are mixed, and some of the colors like the yellow/green above are hard to distinguish.

pm me what you paid nick im curious lol:P:P
