Some of the nicest stuff I ever gotten my hands on in terms of zoas. Will be making a couple frags of each available. The colonies are small but REAL nice. I will frag them, leave them to heal for a week or two and then plan a site update. wicked.....and I have a few more to add later!

Nice pick ups. I saw pictures of those on RR's thread. Ive never had deepwater zoas, in fact Ive never known anyone that has kept these. Are they new to the aquarium trade? And any idea how they do in captivity?

Kinda curious how they do under MH light. If they do well after fragging I see a few I prolly cant live without.

Honestly there was little discussion about these zoas at the LFS's this weekend- they sold almost instantly. I think they are simply from a new geographic Region rather than "Deepwater" (if anyone actually kows what this means). That being said, I would wager they will do just as well any any other zoaanthid. Could be more challenging like the aussie zoas, but only time will tell.

I will be fragging these (and others) in the next few days. Once they heal and hopefully start to grow, then, and only then will they be for sale.

Ya really nice, well worth the money you mentioned you spent on another thread. I wish we could get colonies like that at the LFS in Calgary.

In time Ed. Need to ensure they are hardy and well healed before I make them available.

Yes............the nicest stuff is never cheap. At the end of the day however, it is all about the quality of the corals in the tank. Fancy tanks and equipment does not matter if you just have regular, plain corals that do not capture people's attention.....at least IMO.

And hey, should of told me you wanted some colonies - I could have done some shopping for you and shipped it your way! I have done this before for people out of Province.

O...M....G.

those are some of the nicest zoas i have ever seen. i so wish that my tankwas up, or that we would get stuff like that in calgary.

when do you plan on moving to toronto by the way? (hoping my tank is up so i can get some of that wicked green torch before you leave)

Hopefully you'll still have them when the weather gets better and they can make a cross Canada trip
