Devil's Breaths are still closed and the polyp facing the camera is actually hollowed.. Don't have high hopes for this one's survival....=/


Purple Base Acans


Coasting, do you have another picture of your purple base Acans that are less blue? No matter how I look at mine, it doesn't look like yours or the one on the site. It doesn't look bad, but I expected and would prefer it to look more like yours.

Also, my Neon rainbows are not neon no more...=( not sure why as I have other Coral (Acans and other LPS) with a similar green that didn't turn to this. It's under T5s with a combo of Actinics, Blue+ and Purple+.

My most of zoas haven't open yet, but Acan is doing really well.

I bought one zoa frag with five heads. One head is 70% opened and another is 20% opened while the others are clenched shut. Perhaps more time is needed.

Well I'm curious to see what they lOok like after a day... But at work till late today.

Yeah, I bought mine during Broadway Cameras boxing week sale. Still expensive but at least some sort of discount. I just dont like how the image still looks blurry, its the bowed glass

No idea what I would want for them, Zoas aren't as exciting to me anymore, especially now that i've discovered other coral I like.... What do you think their worth :P Gotta fund the fun stuff! Wish I could make the frag swap to unload them

Kryos - My purple base acans are less blue/purple and more redish today, colour definatly changing. But still not stripy like yours. I know the pics he has on the website were very recent as of the coral arriving, so the corals are bound to look different a few days after arrival as compared to the website. But your's are definatly different.

Well, after a few days of hope I think I've lost all hope for the four out of five zoas.... At least the devils breath survived and its doing very well...

Guess I probably will not order Zoa's/Paly's anymore as the majority dont seem to make it alive and its a pity because Burc has some awesome Zoas/Palys

i'd send him an email (politely)
I had a frag or 2 show up like that, kind of mushy looking, and he sent me some more right out. the turned out much better. I think it depends on what happens when they are shipped, a lot of the time we dont know how they are handled or temperature fluctuates from being moved from a cool van to a warm air plain or what ever. lol

i wouldnt write them off yet zoas can stay closed for as long as months before opening...even if some are melting. try to dose some vit c it should help but also move them around. they ship zoas(freshly cut) in newspaper and paper towel from around the world you would be surprised how hardy they can be. give it some time and move them around they may come back.
