zoa's please read

[MUCHO REEF]

for anyone else who may post of here, there is no arguement once again and wish all of you who want to make it one would stay off the thread, you guys are the one's who turn it into a arguement thread, and it is always the same cry babies trying to make it into a arguement, and if it wasnt for the handful of us, the zoa forum wouldnt be nothing but picture's and id's,


I agree my friend, you're not arguing. Everything posted in every thread on any forum is either someone's opinion, facts, suppostion, anecdotal etc. As someone else just stated, it's free speech and this discussion forum is an extension of said free speech as long as you don't violate any rules, attack someone or flame in anyway via personal attacks.

mods please clean up this stuff off my thread, cost and pricing was never mentioned in my thread,

this was about alot of new zoa's and rarity, and how lighting can make a zoa look like 10 different one's


Lighting is most definitely one of many influential variables which can cause zoas to morph so to speak. I have a great article I want to post on this. Just gotta go dig it out and find it. It has some very scientific stuff which is mind blowing to read.

yes i have mucho, ive used most types of lighting, seen what the same zoa and or sps has looked like under mh with t5, mh with pc, straight t5's with several bulb combo's, and several different led units, i can make a rainbow zoa go from blah to killer colors just with changing temp of light output. i see it as my lights come on and other temp of leds start to come on how my whole tank changes appearance. lol my mind blowing paly is one, goes from a killer color with blues to basically a long skirt brown paly once all temps come on


Last question, promise LOL. You stated you've used most types of lighting, was it because you weren't happy with something so you switched, or were you seeking the perfect scheme you always wanted but couldn't really find?

Mooch

i've tried alot of equiptment over the years, to be honest, my favorite lighting has been
t5's, more so cause of the color temps, i get bored easy lol i do like the current light i have now, { nano-box led unit) but i do plan to add 2 t5's to it, just to obtain certain color temp i cant get from leds, if i had to say for a over all best growth and color ive used was mh with vho's, i dont think anything compares to that combo. im sure before i am done with the hobby there will be a few more lights ill try, lol ive only had about 30 skimmers

gordon would be very interested to see that, and googling zoanthid only brings up a million sites

Why don't you just ask him when this info will be available instead of telling him his point means nothing.

Your right... I jumped the gun, and my point came across the wrong way in regards to the research comment... My apoligies to the poster concerning polyp DNA... But I would like to see some results...

Again, my bad...

Still not sure how I feel about the origin of this thread however... All this stuff could be on the other thread, rather than adding to cluster on this forum...

I agree. I think my viewpoint most closely aligns with what Peter Eichler posted in the other thread.

Now, someone please explain to me (in my other thread) how my eagle eyes have decided to have yellow skirt instead of green skirt after growing in my tank for nearly 2 years.
