Pink and green mouth zoanthid?

Picked this frag up the other day. 

Brown skirt, solid pink face with no stripes or spots through out, transitioning to a yellow into a green oral disk.  Has one line running across the face and mouth.

Closest I could find to a name was between cat eye zoas and bubble buster, but neither are a real CLOSE match.

This is the problem with naming corals by phenotype. You might head over to zoanthids.com and look at their ID page, too. I bought a zoa frag from a dude today at a coral show and he even couldn't come up with a name for the coral. It's deep dark blue/violet with a neon green skirt and speckled in places like an utter chaos. People just make up names when introducing new morphs.

PS: I think it's closer to the bubble busters.

looks like neither.  orange rainbow or rainbow infusion are more common zoa morphs that looks like the one you have.

I think you're right with the orange rainbow.  Definitely closer than the similar colors I was able to find. Thanks. 🙂
