I made a purchase of nine different zoas on eBay a few weeks ago. The seller said his zoas are kept and pictured under LED's and being that's what I have (Maxspect Razor 16k) I figured I'd see similar colors in the polyps in my tank. 8 out of the 9 have opened and seem happy other than they're mostly a drab brownish color with just a hint of green or pink here and there. A few of them I honestly can't tell which one of the zoas I ordered they should be.
The seller has lots of positive feedback, many of which are on the same items I purchased. I have several other zoas in my tank that are all vibrant and healthy. I've messed with my light trying to see if I could bring out anymore color and been unsuccessful. Is it likely these that I just added from eBay will color up with time and age, or is what I see now likely what I'll have from here on?
Temp: 80 degrees
1.025
KH 10.2
Ca 400
pH 7.8 (a little low but I have always struggled with lower pH in three different tanks over the years, livestock has always seemed happy so I have quit fretting over it)
