Zoanthid & Palythoa Photographs/Tanks/Videos

Zoas in the 20L. These were all suffering until we dimmed the white LEDs, now they're all bouncing back very nicely & look better than these pics.





Only one of these is open so far, but it's getting better. Very dark with a bright green mouth.


My boyfriend keeps moving these to where I can't get a good pic LOL. Victoria's Secrets, pink & blue. They're doing great now.


These are also hard to get pics of, and are very sad in this pic. They look great now, tiny green & yellow/orange, they look like little yellow stars under the blue LEDs.


I'll have to take much better pics as they improve, and move some to get good pics then move them back. Drives me crazy trying to get pics of stuff in the middle of the tank.

I really like seeing all the zoas and palys, but it just makes me want a few more.

Here are a few of mine.

Hey coralfarm, I LOVE your zoas & palys! My ambition is to try and acquire some like yours. I am wondering if you can tell me what the ones I labelled are in the following photo, and where you got them? Also, what lights did you use in taking the photo?

Thanks!

Not sure what either of these are called, but I like them so much I want to get some more Zoas.

Edit: The first ones are rather small polyped but with large growth rates. The colony was obtained in May and has almost tripled in size. I need to frag it out soon as they have decided to grow into my anemone.

The second one was a hitcher into my Mantis tank. It was less than 1/4" in diameter, and is now more than 1/2". It seems to be solitary, though, as there hasn't been any babies yet.

when you id the second hitchhiker please do tell i want one!
 
talk about too much eye candy in the morning.... i would like to have 1 polyp of each please :lolspin::lolspin::lolspin::lolspin:
