Caribbean Blue Zoas - Aquarium Advice

JM · 04-25-2008, 10:12 AM

I just picked these up from my lfs a couple days ago. I haven't seen Blue Zoas from the Caribbean very often so i figured i would share a couple photos. Ones with daylights on and the other is with actinics.

Beautiful corals. They look really large and healthy.

On dives I've noticed that some corals, when they have water "swished" on them, sort of curl up to protect themselves. Do these do that to?

pitt420dude, i'm not quite sure i know wut u mean. they do close and pull there polyps in, but as far as i know all zoas do that.
