Incredible! I'm envious! I once had an addiction to Zoanthids, but alas a predator cured me. I'm working on becoming addicted again though, anyone want to help my addiction?:wink:

P.S. The point of a support group is to help with an addiction. This is far from helping! :lol:

The Zoanthid collectors camera of choice, the canon 5d mark II. I bought this camera just to photograph zoanthids.. Overkill maybe?? :lol:

anyway.. Lens was canon 100mm macro at f/2.8.

Zoas
 
Couple of newer photos, unfortunately due to an ALK swing I have lost some of my favorite colonies. Weirdest thing, I haven't added any additives to the tank for about 2 weeks (I tested around the 5th with an ALK reading of 7) and 2 days ago I tested and it was at 13!!! Slowly lowering it down but I'm stumped on a reason :neutral:.

The Grizz 04-20-2010 05:33 AM

ALL RIGHT, ALL RIGHT I confess I am an addict, but I don't have as many of the amazing colorful zoa as most of you YET. Would love to get some from Levi for sure when he does some fragging.:biggrin:

So is there a membership card I need to get.:lol::lol:

kien 04-20-2010 05:57 AM

You are not a member until you post pictures proving your addiction :lol:

If Patience is a virtue... then my $2500.00 visa bill indicates that I'm not virtuous :lol:. They are so addicting it isn't even funny, I think after this I'm going to go out and buy a whack load of frags just to grow out now.

Parker 04-20-2010 05:36 PM

I'm going to need a few things from all of you:

1) Addresses
2) Alarm codes if applicable
3) Hours of day you're typically not home.
4) Detailed map of your home stating the location of your tanks.
5) Cookies - I'm bound to get hungry bagging up all the Zoa's

There are some amazing collections here! Thanks for sharing..

no_bs 04-20-2010 07:43 PM

Ok, no sexy camera but you get the drift. More to come.

KennyKen 04-25-2010 05:07 AM

Question for y'all;

Ive looked quite extensively on the internet for pictures of these unreal zoo's we go bananas over in the wild and have come up pretty much empty handed.
Anyone know of a good site with pics of zoo's in the wild.

Or are my hunches correct that the really gorgeous zoa's do not come from the wild, and are in fact made from skittles and mermaid farts?
(dont count out my hypothesis just yet)

no_bs 04-25-2010 06:23 AM

Not many sites, but here's a link. Lots of cool pics through out that site.

Hi, My name is Kody. Im here to confront my problem. I have a mild to extreme obsession with zoas. *phew* ... that was difficult.. now to mend..

I love all that ive seen here.. I preview posted my post, only to realise.. WOW.. I need lower resolution.. 4 minutes later of loading I could see the top 1/16th of the picture. I will work to bring you my obbsession at a more reasonable hour for myself.... and share our pain together.. but awesome pics guys.. im jealous of some of the shots ive seen..
