Show me your best!!!

Ipisces- awesome collection you got there.

Thanks. I have about 45 +- different colors. Its to many to post them all here. I will set up an album for them when I get a chance. There are a lot of beautiful ones that I would love to have yet too.

Here are my favorites, these are all underwater pics. I dont know there names and I never pay more than $25 for any corals (struggling student) so my selection is based on money, but they still look good to me. The last pic was of a new colony I got so they hadn't colored up yet, look much brighter now.

Those are all beautiful. I believe the second pic is called Eye of Rah and the third pic is wammin watermellons.

The ones in the last pic, I would love to find some of those. Not sure what those or the orange ones are, but they are all beautiful zoas.
 
Thanks, it's nice to know the names since locals in my area dont seem to care or really be that interested in zoes (they are all SPS crazy). I thought the last ones were Green bay's but now after they colored up im not sure.
 
What are the names to all these zoas? the are nice but it would be nice to have a name attched to them!!:strooper:
 
Any tips on how the keep the colors? do I need metal halides, I was planning on placing z's and p's on the bottom half of the tank... the tank dimentions will be 48x24x35 tall ( about 170 gallon)
 
With 35" in height it's going to be hard to keep anything in the bottom half of the tank. What would your alternative to Metal Halides be? T5's and MH's produce comparable PAR. I'm a believer that zoas and palys need a lot of light and that LFS's that sell them as low light corals are also selling green and brown polyps that the customer will be happy to keep alive. Mine all get a lot of light.

In my opinion, you would need an exceptionally good rockwork design, exceptionally good reflectors, and perhaps even 400W Metal Halides to be able to grow anything in the bottom half of a tank that deep.

Do you call these something? I have ones identical to those that I usually call "Cat's Eyes" or "Non-lineaged palys that I call Cat's Eyes because they're pink with green centers."

Yeah I was setting up a 40 breeder, but a deal come along and I just couldn't pass it up! 400 watters, I could do that but I might need a chiller
