Poll: most colorful Zoas

[Whiterabbitrage]

In your opinion what is the most brilliantly colored, largest, most amazing Zoa?

 

[dannyp02908]

utter chaos is pretty bright. I don't think of zoas as large. Palys are large, but not really zoas.

 

[Justbecause]

Rastas and Emeralds on fire.

CARs

oxides. or any orange/yellow variant that is almost blinding under LED's. BamBams qualify and so do SunnyD's IMO.

For Most Color, without regards to brightest I would go with the CAR/LL/Marley style or maybe fruit loops, the blue and orange contrast so well.

 

[Whiterabbitrage]

I really like BamBams too, but they are so tiny. Was hoping someone knew of larger Zoas. Yeah, Paly size would be great! But otherwise, at least pea sized would be nice. My BamBams are half that size, maybe smaller. MicroBams!

I have some fireballs that are almost too bright and colorful. You look in the tank and your eyes hurt ha I think it's tough to narrow down to one there are so many nice ones out there.

cant beat the original armor of god, the real deal is incredibly bright


heres an older pic:



polyp size about a dime

Wow! Gorgeous! Need pix to compare though. Got pix of Fireballs? CARs? Anyone?

But how much of the color/brightness is more directly tied to lighting being used rather than the Zoa itself?

The coral fluoresces natural color in the right lighting. There's nothing unnatural about a brilliantly colored coral. Though to directly answer your question the light plays a huge role.

My fireballs

well ive had this colonie under 250w halides, radons , radion pros and now 80w t5's. ive had it for many years

its been the same in pretty much all lighting

I have some red devils armor that is paly size and has a very bright red center to them.

Honestly there are too many very nice bright zoa types out there to think of them all. It just seems the red/orange/yellows seem to pop more under light than say blues or greens.

 

[Whiterabbitrage]

Fireballs- Wow! Amazing color.
Never heard of Red Devils Armor. Any chance we can see a pix?

It's hard to beat a rastas, I have all types of expensive named zoas and my eyes still go straight to the rastas.

 

[lhm nole]

Rasta and my fruit loops what everyone sees first in my tank

 

[Fishy 1]

i wish i had zoas that are as pretty as the ones posted:sad1: but i will have some pretty ones someday:smokin:.

 

[terrypercula]

My rastas are still small but I love them.

I love my raptors rainbows as well.

The sunny D's seem to be a people pleaser though. Everyone asks what they are.

 

[Mael]

yah Im looking forward to my rastas getting bigger, right now they are so tiny.

Will try to get a good pic of the devils armor soon, they stretched a bit when I changed my lights but retained their color.
