The colorful thing in the first picture is a surrogate urchin for the baby bangaii cardinals. The one you like is also one of my favorite ones. I almost lost them when a rogue colony of ugly palys attempted to take them over. I fragged them off and glued them to a plug. Its been rough going but I see a baby popping up.

Thanks for the compliments. Now I just need to be patient and let things grow out
The camera is a FujiFilm Finepix A345 4.1MP point-and-shoot.

From various places. Some have come from Preuss, some from a few LFS around here which like me
but most from other reefers.tekknoschtev

Re: Some new pics, some old zoas
thats an urchin?
multi colored urchin? it looks like those plastic swords they put in your burger at hard rock to hold the buns to the burger

Re: Re: Some new pics, some old zoas
Others fielded the question but yes, its fake. Ironically, those spines are the plastic swords resturants use to hold burgers together, I just snapped the "handle" part of the sword off
As for the "People eater" zoas, I picked them up from a LFS that was having a buy $25 worth of stuff, get $15 worth of stuff for free. They didnt look nearly that nice in their frag bin. I used to have closer to 10-15 polyps, unfortunately an ugly greenish puce colored zoanthid was encroaching on these ones' space, and took over most of the colony. Now I'm attempting to grow 'em back out.
