Live Coral Zoanthid Zoanthids Awesome Deepwater Lot H - eBay (item 400057170115 end time Jun-28-09 15:09:00 PDT)


any ideas as to a name?

 

just deepwater zoas. If they had a name, perry would post it. By the way, alot of people are having issues with deepwater melting. Just a heads up

 

oh ok.

 

Yeah, deepwaters are a lot more particular about location, lighting and flow. Seriously beautiful but a lot trickier to keep.

 

And often times, the names are made up by the seller. Or at least this is the idea I get. I have seen many different versions of Superman Zoas for example.

 

Just a little heads up, you can tell by the look of the egg crate that those pics are photo-shopped to all hell too. They have had some serious contrast and saturation work done on them.

 

yeah my local reef club also said it looks way photoshopped, i cannever tell. glad someone pointed it out tho.

thanks everyone.

 

I could tell by the egg crate rack. In a normal photo, it should look, well, like egg crate You can see in this photo how deep of a blue/purple tone, along with the fuzz that really isn't just from being past the focal point. I saw that the seller specifically said they do not crank up actinics or photo shop, but I would still be suspicious of it.

 

just to chime in, i will say that i know perry's stuff pretty well. he does a lot of business around here and is a very reputable wholesaler. you can bet when you buy from him you will get nice stuff but like said earlier deepwaters are far more difficult than regular zoas. just my .02 since he isnt here to defend himself. btw i have deepwaters that came from him and they are stunning

 

Well, there ya go
