Hey Everybody!

There's always somebody wondering what kind of Zoa they have, and this time it's me :gay1: I picked up the first two rocks at WOF in Duluth over the 4th. I already checked Zoaid with little success. The last pic is of a small colony I've had for a while. Pic doesn't do them justice. I'm thinking either RPEs or OPEs. What do you think?

There's a light pink sheen to the outer fringe on these.

Under Actinics, the outer fringe is metallic red.

I have no idea, but I'd be interested in trading for a frag of the first ones.

Cool. As it happens, I already have a separate piece or two of them. The whole colony was just sitting in the sand at the store, so they separated a bit in the bag.

First pic looks like a hybrid of cinnamon palys. not sure about the second, and the 3rd kinda looks like red hypo.

What are you interested in and I can post a pic. I have some dark pink, light pink, orange with yellow centers, and few others I'd have to see if they are big enough to frag.

I'll go for anything that's pretty unique. Pinks don't seem to keep color well in my system, so blues and reds are nice.

First looks like some sort of un-named wild zoa rock, second appears to be very like FR's Pink Elephant Palys (very nice). Third, if the lashes are red, would be a RRPE (red-rim people eater). The RRPE's are different than the RPE's (red people eaters) for the reason that the middle is not red, but more of a purple color, like the PPE's.

And um, if you're ever looking to trade some of the Pink Elephant types, I'd be up for a few polyps.
