The more I look at those zoanthinds myka the more I think they are princess toadstools.

Myka 09-16-2012 05:55 PM

Well that sure is a possibility! Honestly though, I really would not be able to tell the difference...like most all of the other ridiculously similar Zoa and Palys IDs! Drives me nuts. :lol:

I'm pretty sure the Princess Toadstools are quite a bit smaller than the Pink Elephants if that helps to try and identify.

Myka 09-17-2012 03:34 AM

Yeah I don't know...the paly I have has the "rays" of green in the center like the Pink Elephant although you can't see that in my photo. I think mine look a smidge more like Pink Elephants than Princess Toadstools. Mine are about 12-14 mm across.

Zoaelite 09-17-2012 09:07 PM

Anyone have an ID for these? Green Oral slit with some interesting striations coming from the slit, green tips on the frills as well.

As in a people eater morph with an orange oral slit instead of a green one? Personally never, would love to see one though!

Not a PPE morph of any sort(I don't think anyway). These are smaller and are mottled green/orange and have a small fluorescent orange mouth. I have pics but no time to upload right now. I'll try to get them up after work. I've seen yellow mouths and green mouths but never orange.

reefwars 09-20-2012 10:17 PM

my darknight palys have bright orange mouths, a slit like the green peple eaters do.

Myka 09-22-2012 09:22 PM

I got a couple polyps of this bad boy a couple days ago...

Happy People Eaters (named by Happy Corals Inc lol). That a normal Magician you can see to the right of it.

Here are my favorite Zoas for the moment (I say for the moment because I have a bunch more still acclimating to my tank.....thanks Denny :mrgreen:)

These somehow managed to survive the angels by hiding in the rocks and they were rescued when I upgraded.

ZOOCRAZY 09-26-2012 10:24 PM

Myka 10-11-2012 11:05 PM

Unknown name...these beauties melted during the week I was in BC right after MACNA. They got really bad bag rub on the way home. All the Zoas were in the bags for about 30 hours and flew in the cargo hold in the planes with no heat packs and not even a styro box (I will plan better next time!).

that blue agave is awesome , i have 1 polyp grow to 4 and are currently shut down:(

not sure what the deal is .....

Myka 10-11-2012 11:42 PM

Blue Agave is definitely eye-catching! Mine has a little baby on the side of it, I'm hoping it will grow into something more impressive...I can't stand little frags. Yeck.

reefwars 10-11-2012 11:50 PM

wow thats nice , did you grow it to that many??


dibs on a frag lol

reefermadness 10-12-2012 03:32 AM

I started with a 20polyp frag but yes there has to be over 100, infact this picture is a few months old and its grown even more. I dont want to stare at them too long for fear of murphy coming down and bonking me on the head.

Myka 10-12-2012 10:15 PM

Oh those are nice Rastas Darryl! I've been looking for them for awhile, but haven't been impressed with the imposter Rasta-not-so-look-alikes that have been floating around lately.

reefermadness 10-12-2012 11:11 PM

Wow..there are look a likes? I've only ever seen a few polyps of look a likes come into RR but ya they wont the exact same...only simlar and these are brighter.

Myka 10-13-2012 03:21 PM

Oh I meant people call them Rastas, but they are not Rastas. Hence not-so-look-alike. :D

Unfortunately that is one of 4 I am still trying to ID

Wheelman76 11-08-2012 01:29 AM

I'm pretty sure I have the same ones and have been trying to figure out what they are.
