Yeah that's ridiculous!

Some guy on RC on the Zoa forum wants to know how to wipe pink zoas from his tank cuz he's got too many.

That's just CRAZY talk, especially for $35 a polyp! I think I read that correctly that a polyp can grow as much a 3" in diameter!

hahah Phong, yeah I have some of those too, they were the brown eye palythoas that had a bit of green to them under heavy blue light, fell behind a rock for a year, now they look identical to that! :D

Eileen: I like how he's complaining about the zoos overrunning, yet has those blue/red stripped mushrooms in that very picture, now those things will run rampant over everything

Yeah, no kidding right? I gave away that stuff at the swap, and is a staple in beginner frag pack.

This is a joke, right? LE? Dude, if thats an LE, I must be sitting on some serious cash....

Offtopic here, Tuberider, you're Jeremy right? I picked up a frag of pink hydnophora at the swap with your name on it. It is now my pride and joy...it's freaking awesome. You did an excellent job on grow out and have inspired me to do a better job fragging next year ( my frags were more like accidents). Much respect.

Thanks blink, the kind words are much appreciated.

The Palys I saw in November were 2.5-3" in diameter, I'm not kidding, I have yet to see any that large before and since. I only say that because I was struck with the size, not because I'm a fan of "colorful Aiptasia", I'm more into "colored sticks".
