    Anyone know what this Zoa is? I was told Firecracker but it doesn't seem to look much like that according to the web. Nearest thing on coralpedia is Blue Speckled Hunters but that still doesn't look right.

    zoas have so many different names. I don't even try to keep track of them. If they're pretty, I may get them :)

    You'll rack your brain trying to get a name, and really whats the point? How about we call them zoa's.

    plus 3. dont even try to get a name. I think alot of coral sellers name them crazy names just to make them sound rare, like "purple people eater zoas" or some crazy crap. If you want to name it, then just call it by the color. for example, if it is purple with a green center, just call it "purple green eye zoa" or something.
