    Hello Everyone,

    I have had these zoas in my tank for quite some time and have yet to find names for them. I know a lot of people disagree with the naming of zoas, but I would like to know for my records what these zoas are. I thank you in advance.

    Robert

    I have been trying to do that but I have noticed that all of them are different! It is a little maddening. Thank you for the compliment as well. :D

    I have seen where the color pattern is the same and the size of one ring is different and so is the name sometimes 3 of 4 names for the same pattern. Maddening because sites make up their own names to differentiate themselves and maybe add a couple to the price.

    Exactly! If you look in the first post I have, the third picture is by far my favorite zoa in my tank. It is nearly black with a neon green ring around the center. I have never seen them anywhere for sale and got them from a fellow reefer whose entire colony died.

    Sorry for the reefer. You never know you might be able to start your own business off of those zoas.

    Really? Have you ever seen a morph similar to that one?

    It's hard to tell from the pic but I don't think I have. You never know it might just work out to frag and grow that one.
