Lets see your Zoas

Ok, the so called Cherry Bombs opened up hrs after putting them in the tank. Come to find out they look nothing like cherry bombs, but rather melon zoas.

I would be mad about the cherry bombs IMO ive looked at getting them and if they dont show up being red instead green or some other color I wouldnt be happy. is that that only coral you got?
 
here's the fire and ice and candy apples i got. you cant see all the fires because the other side is full of polyps too.

sorry about the cell phone pic. i wish i knew why these candy apples dont open all the way while the other 3 greens on the same plug are open all the time? :/

are these the candy apples you got?
 
what are the frags mounted on? I have no idea what my free frag is mounted on its something long and square like. its like they dont use frag plugs more like anything they can find.
 
I am ****ed about them not being Cherry bombs, I e-mailed them with the pic and demanded a refund or ship the correct coral. Yes I only got those zoas and CUC. CUC was very skimpy as you can see in my photo's. That frag of zoas didn't come on any plug or rock either. Very dissatisfying!
 
Why order hermits? They should be avoided. Hermits can irritate zoas.
Herbivore snails are welcome.
Sorry about your trouble.

I know they walk over zoas, but they never do any noticeable damage in my experience.

They irritate them. Not healthy. And you've got lots of hermits!!
They could damage the polyps when they try to still food particles, in case you feed the polyps.

Should inspect everything you get from them I ended up getting acro eating isopod infestation in my reef tank from them I ordered pods and it came in with them lost alot of money worth of corals just want to give people heads up this happened eight months ago so inspect everything
 
OMG I would ask for money back on that - jeez here is some of my frags I use for trade I dont get how they can justify that price.

to give the benefit of doubt is it possible you recieved the wrong coral.. I think cherry bombs are ALL RED and maybe they made a mistake ?

Hmm, I love hermits, have all kinds of Zs&Ps, and I wouldn't consider the polyps closing up briefly due to a wayward hermit leg or claw ,irritating. I have yet to see one destroy any tissue and I enjoy their frag cleaning habits.
 
I seen R2G had a good deal on their Zoas yesterday all of them was 9.99$ did anyone take advantage of the sale?

I saw the advertisement, but considering my first and only order with them the it doesn't matter. All dead or melted shortly after. Attached are pictures of the dead lot, I call it. The heating pack broke in transit along with 3 of 4 bags. All died. I would say it was a one time thing with them but you hear the stories everywhere throughout this site. I wish I could show nice pictures of my zoas, but they didn't survive.

Here is my colony.. Been in the tank now for a week and doing great. NO clue what "name" they are as I bought them at Petco as "assorted polyp coral".

Yea cherry bombs are suppose to be red and purple or all red.
