thanks for looking!
:thumbsup:
 
Your new zoa frags look great and well sorry im really bad with ID i cant help :(...

P.S: good eye on finding that sundial snail ... kill it smash it!!
 
nice scores with the hitchikers!

over a year ago, i got a small ~30polyp blue zoa colony at my LFS for $25. it had 2 small urchins that crawled out of the rock, about the size of a pencil head eraser. also 1 brittle star, and a small 1" mantis hiding inside the rock. the rock was no bigger than 2 softballs side-by-side.

i captured the mantis, put it in his own tank, and apparently is something really rare, but really boring and never comes out :lol:

both of the urchins are now the size of golfballs, and are constantly bulldozing frags/rocks to the ground which is really annoying. one of them is now living comfortably in the mantis tank.

your urchins have a really cool green tint to them. pretty wicked ;)

so are those urchins really green? or is that just the camera talkin? i could trade ya a frag of zoas for one of those urchins if you are interested ;)
 
i may be interested in that. im going to be setting up my 20g and taking down my hex pretty soon. i will have to look for them. they are smaller than an eraser head and i have yet to see them out during the day. i will keep you in mind when get on with my 20g project. got any pics of frags in mind?
