Hey Charles,

I have a frag of these right? They look different than the ones you fragged for me.

BTW, they look great under high light and actinics. Definitely something different.

depending on the lighting they can look different as you can see the coralpedia link. Stronger the light the crazier these look and the yellow glows with sparkles and the nice bright pink

those mohawks look wicked under my actinics. kind of dark, with a green center and pink on the very edges.

the darks aren't just a dark color, they have texture also which i find pretty unique

i think they're a great addition to a DBTC.

I will take a few, especially the more red ones, with the rest of what we agreed upon when the monti is ready.

Once fully acclimated to you lighting, you can start moving them up to the highest point of your tank if you want, higher the light the more vibrant these guys get. They'll start to look like these, but my strains get way more yellow/gold

The ones you passed onto me look exactly like that, except the edges on mines are longer like fingers. Must be the flow, because all the other zoas in the area seem to exhibit the same behavior.

Flow can cause extension of skirts on the polyp

I have at least one small 7 polyp colony of the bright pink zoas that can be passed on if anyone is interested.
