Help ID paly, and are these from the SAME colony?

[deadmanh]

The Paly's seem to have a transitioning effect going here. So far I have only popped one off of the rock and put it on a frag plug because the rock that the colony is on won't be able to get a good mat going. But before I do it to the rest of the rock, I wanted to know if these are the SAME polps with different colors or what was going on here.

Plus do these guys already have a name?

You my friend(yes I want some ).....have a zoanthus gigantus I havent seen........and yes they appear to be the same

all of the people eaters with lots of speckles and spackles can morph tremendously from tank to tank, and even in the same tank in different placemnts or even sitting right next to each other. the different system entirely will do it even more so of course

 

[deadmanh]

its only wierd because they are morphing on the same rock

here is another example of two like PE polyps sitting right next to each other, with different colors showing.

these next ones are all the exact same polyp in the same tank. the colors dont change a whole lo on these...but the patterns do
