LF: Japanese Deepwater Zoas

[Myka]

As the title says. I'm willing to pay shipping if you have a few available. Preferably looking for 10+ polyp mini colonies, or may be interested in full colonies if the price is reasonable.

Please PM.

Here are some Japanese examples:

You probably want to talk to me... I have molten reds, fruitloops, LA Lakers and Sherberts.

FYI, none of them are actually from Japan. Just marketing.

Yeah, I never understood why they were called "Japanese". PM sent.

I'm no good with Zoa names, but I think those are just LA Lakers (the green ones pictured below those ones) that are yellowish in some peoples' tanks. I've seen them called Yellow Jackets too, but I think they are the same as LA Lakers just different water conditions.

I never thought of that before. I googled in curiosity and found this article ..

Mentions stony corals. Never dug further to see if also soft corals.


Nice zoas though.

"Japanese Deepwater" is just a marketing scam. The Zoas aren't deepwater, and they aren't Japanese. Everyone knows what you're talking about when you use the term though.

For shame. Two more of these "incidents" and the mods should seriously consider a ban. #noobsmaketherestofuslookbad
