Here's my measly collection of zoanthids haha. I have a few others but I like these. I'm planning on ordering some more soon.

I think these are radioactive dragon eyes.

And I'm really not sure what these are, I did post a thread about it but nothing was conclusive lol.

Yes those are radioactive dragon eyes. There other favor blue hornets except the rings seem to bleed out a bit. Very nice though. There are 2 types of blue hornets that I know of. The African kind is the really nice pricey ones, the others I think are Indonesian, not 100%

Well the ones in the second pic are truly gorgeous! You have to start some where. And keeping them alive and happy is the most important part of the process.

Nice looking ZOA's you have there Alexandria. I really like the vibrancy of that blue and green one.

Very disappointing yet understandable. Wouldn't want there to be Zoas flying through the air. "We got Z's..." Or stuck somewhere.

well thanks to a certain carrier over 1/2 my coral arrived dead or shall I say frozen
arrive by 12pm deadline became a 6pm delivery ,
I salvaged as much as I could but I am still going after the carrier for there major screw up and neglagince
here are some picts of what I was able to salvage there not dead but look horrible
among other things that went south lol
excuse the picts as my camera went for a swim its amazing it still works somewhat
no longer has a focus

matt coral

don't know what it is looks like feather dusters coming out of a coral stalk I just think it's cool

I lost over 1/2 of what I ordered , salvaged what I could some seem to be coming around but I think it will take a while before they fully recover
I was up almost all night going through all the zoa's and palys saving what I could

 

[paul87]

Man seaweed I'm sorry to hear about that. I would be pretty hot. Is the carrier or company you got it from gonna reimburse you in any way?

 

[54seaweed]

I already have a claim in there supposed to get back to me by tomorrow , I'm sure it will be me calling them like always, some of the corals are coming around but you can tell they have been through hell,

That is awful, I was a little worried for the shipment the day you said you were still waiting and it was awful weather

Hope what you have will recover quickly.

You will have to PM me the name of the feather duster thing too it looks awesome.

Hoping they can reimburse you, especially the shipping costs for the loss and you can get some new cool stuff to replace it.

 

[BLUEaquarium06]

Can anyone id these 2 for me? I got them with a green star polyp frag for $10

First ones may be fire and ice hard to tell in that pic. The second are radioactive dragon eyes, at least I think they are.

that feather duster thing is called tree polyps yes they look neat in the water column mine were only like $6.99 there a reddish purple polyp they just don't close up like feather dusters they just have that odd look

Stick / Tree Polyp

still waiting on a call from the claims dept I saved every dead skeleton so I can shove them in his face along with all the packaging 14 out of 22 corals are dead I think my wife is more upset than me , I have to see if I can get my camera working again didn't help going for a swim in my tank , as I have picts of corals encrusted in ice , I so hope I can recover them , my daughter thinks if I put the memory card into her camera I should be able to recover the picts , we shall see
