dunno exactly why... but a people eater is a zoa/paly with a green mouth.

anyone fill me in why they call them People eaters?

people eaters= zoanthids(not palys like everyone calls them) of the family zoanthus gigantus. Distinguishing characteristics are white striations going down the side of the closed polyps and usually they have a neon green mouth

been a while since Ive taken any pics, these are all old..... I have quite a few new ones since these were taken, and dont have many of these anymore...

My research into the topic indicated that the moniker was applied because of the large green mouth.

Nice shots flyyyguy! You've got some nice variations there.
