Hey timinator that one red and speckled polypf from your large colony of zoas, do you have any idea of what it's called. I picked up a rock that had one on there and now it has about five or six of them.

I also picked up this colony for 18 bucks on sale. I went back for more the following day and they were back up to around 45 bucks.

They are, just don't show up that way in the pic. They look like little slits but I'm taking these photo's with a 2.0 MP digi from 1987 pretty much and my photo taking ablilities are amature at best. They actuall caught the follow of their ways and pulled out all the frags that had these on them out of their bin or one of their employee's took them home to his tank.

Yours is a bit different from what I have. I had some of those in my old tank, dont think they have a name though.

Bought what i thought was a rock but really was a 4-5inch clam that had 5 yumas growing on it + another rock that had 3 yumas growing on it for $60. I asked the guy is it $60 for the 2 pieces or just one? He laughed and was like " ahh F*ck it...." lol Since I've purchased them 2 more yumas babies have grown and the others have gotten bigger. They are yellow,green, and purple yumas.

I got this orange lobo for $2.99. It has 3 heads. Not the best picture but it's the closest I've got to it's true color.

Not sure what they are called but I have those too. Fastest growing polyps ever! I've probably got 20 frags from 1 frag in less than a year.
