I could be wrong but I haven't seen any of these posted anywhere.

and I can't find a source for these:

These are nice, especially the black and red ones. Were those listed under zoaid as EZs or are those different?

Mine were taken under 15XM 400 watt halides.

All I know is there are a couple different people calling their zoas spidermans, which may not be the same ones listed on zoaid. I know mine are the same that are pictured on zoaid, actually its my picture.

Mine have the same exact color scheme, they are just light blue in my lighting. I am thinking of supplementing my lights with metal halide. I hope that does it.


So where are we... seconded were the spidermans and the pink dalmatian people eaters. I like Darth Mauls on the list too. Thoughts?

your link doesn't work for me, but i posted it earlier in this thread any way

 

[Fishindude88]

I am very interested in getting myself a frag of the purple hornets. They one of the nicest zoos I've seen!

 

[jabber49]

keep in mind that auction is for one single polyp. He usually has one up every month or so

 

[Fishindude88]

Gathered from this thread I have:

1: Pink Dalmation People Eaters
2: Purple Hornets
3: Spiderman
4: Darth Maul
5: ???

 

[SPSpirate]

somebody was talking about these pretty babies but could not find or get in touch of the source where they got them from..I believe they said from a reef in Canada! "serene nove "

 

[Fishindude88]

Those are really bright, and I couldn't find them anywhere. I would put them on the list.

 

[Guygettnby]

give it a few years and those purple hornets will be every where. people will still be charging a arm and a leg for them though :lol:

i cant believe that people are actually going to pay almost $100 for a single polyp! that is insane.

 

[Fishindude88]

I know! I started in on the bidding when it was 20 and stopped when it was up at 40. Whoever is paying that much money on that one polyp is insane. I will find it in a few months for cheaper, I'm sure!

[gindobuck]

dang.. theres so many nice frags here
anyone want to frag me a little bit of their zoos?

 

[Fishindude88]

I see some purple deaths up there, they at least need to be in the discussion for taking that 5th spot.

I like those superman zoos Dave! I thought I had superman zoos... they look much different though. They are pink with a blue eye.

 

[xMRxCOMPLETEx]

As already mentioned. Armeggedons

 

[IridescentLily]

Remember Sassafrass's zoa pic of the zoa colony he found.
Those totally needs to be on here. Noone had ever seen them.
I'll try to find a pic of them to post here, I hope he doesn't mind...

 

[IridescentLily]

I don't know if these are rare or not but here is the link to sassafrass' zoas.

And here's one

[Fishindude88]

Armegeggedons are nice, but I see them a lot. I would say they are rare, but not top 5 rare.

IridescentLiily, Sassafrass zoanthids... I have never seen those before. The first picture is the best by far, the last was posted already. Are they all sassafrass'?

New List:
1: Pink Dalmatian People Eaters OR Sassafrass?
2: Purple Hornets
3: Spiderman OR Purple Deaths?
4: Darth Maul
5: Up for debate

Purple Hornets... I call mine Rings of Saturn...
