Zoas mixing?

[FishBrawler]

Well I have a zoa rock and decided to make a 2 inch island with four different type and different to the zoa rock, the zoas seem to have mixed. The island is farther back and I don't have a macro lense, but I did the best with my phone.

Now here is the island:

So here are the zoas that look like they have morphed. My orange bam bam has a slight purple streak to the center and the other one I do not know because its looks so different from anything I have:

And the last thing that was sorta cool. My turbo snail, going on five years, spawned for almost and hour! I took a video but here is a picture. It was pretty cool to watch! Very interesting to say the least!

Thanks! Do you know if that is some sorta new morph? or not significant enough?

[buddythelion]

Not significant enough to be a new morph. New morph would mean that you could actually have clones that look the same. Or if you can get them to mix frequent enough that you can actually duplicate the same morph. That would be wicked!

Should I try to clear it out and let them reproduce?

[buddythelion]

Magic seems to be happening atm... I say let them be! Dun wanna mess up their juju.

I have been really into Zoanthid study, and cultivation these past two months and I have to say, this is extraordinary !! please keep me posted on those two polyps heads and any others that show interesting signs of morphing

Thanks! The tanks is five years old and the zoa rock is probably 3 years. The island is only like 2 months though! I'm excited.

would you mind if I shared the photo around. Any information I can find, and I will be more than happy to tell you about it.

Be my guest! I might try and get some better pictures later for you!

[FishBrawler]

I don't think that this is any better (nor will it probably get better) but here is the two again!

[FishBrawler]

This makes for an interesting twist! I am ridding my 55 gallon of the sand and going barebottom and so I picked up the zoa island and put it in a tupaware container and guess what I found on the other side!? More zoas! Not exactly like the one that I showed but almost identicle and what else... there is 3 of them if not more!

[ReviloM]

I like! Let them be then frag them to reproduce again
