People eater?

[Logzor]

Are these a type of people eater?

Now that these have been in the tank for awhile it seems that there are two purple rings, one outside the green area in the mouth then another outside the green area in the middle of the polyp. They seem to be getting a deeper purple.

The outside skirt also seems to be changing color slightly under my lights.

I think that it is a people eater(which means it is a Zoanthus Gigantus), tell tale signs are the neon green mouth and the striations I can see on the closed polyps. I do not however think it is a Red People Eater. Do the poly[ps get to a nickle in size?
I think they are very nice. I have several PPE color morphs and really like them.
How about: P.R.R.P.E. (purple ringed red people eater).

The polyps do get to be around nickel sized.

I would call it a RPE but it really has more purple and green in it. I have been having difficulty finding a name. PRRPE sounds fine, though.

I love this color combination, it is stunning, I will try and get a better shot with the tripod sometime soon. The purple halos and the green strips will be visible in a non-blurry picture.

Here is a non-blurry pic after a few days with all lights turned on:

They seem to be getting more and more people. The halos are becoming stronger and more developed and the green is taking an interesting pattern throughout the polyp.

For fun I submitted them to zoaid as "Purple Halo People Eaters"

If anyone can enlighten me with as positive id that would be great.
