Do I have an Eagle Eye moph?

[Ranchero]

I glued 4 eagle eye polyps on this rock about 6 months ago. 2 of them started to fade and I thought they were dying but soon turned all orange and have blue centers and are producing more polyps just like them while my other 2 eagle eyes are the same.
I did change my light bulbs out prior to this happening.

Those are definitely something different. Probably a hitchhiker that you didn't notice. Very, very nice hitchhiker btw.

You should probably send them to me. I can test them for a little while and let you know what I find...

But how could it be a hitchiker if I saw the polyps actually changing from the eagle eye to this orange crazy looking zoa?
I wonder if they are done changing or they might keep going into something else

did you glue the 4 original EEs to exactly that spot? or did you glue them where the other polyps of EEs are?

looks far too different to be a morph. possible when you got the rock there was bits of zoa mat left that just took awhile to reestablish itself and sprout some heads.

Yes I glued them exactly in that spot. I changed all my bulbs in my fixture to some better quality ones and 2 of them started to fad to a very light orange with white centers. its been 6 months if not more and the orange is getting darker and there is blue in the centers and it has produced 3 polyps that look just like them.:eek1:

well said. goes to show how much we really dont know yet.



if they did morph, then you got a new set of zoa's if there is not that color out there then you can name them!
