    Went to get some water for my BC at one of the LFS here and as always I couldn't resist looking at some coral. I also needed (wanted) a piece of LR to fill a void in the tank and in the basement bargain coral bin I saw a nice Tonga rock with a couple polyps (zoas)of something on it. So for five bucks, told the dude to bag it for me. After acclimation, I did a dip and noticed on the other side of the Tonga it was loaded with polyps (30 to 40). And after about 15 minutes in the tank they started to open and to my surprise they just so happened to be "Fire and Ice " zoas. Not the most rare of Zoas but heck for $5 bucks, I'll take umm...

    Here is the best pic I can get with my camera phone...
