[mr funktastic]

looking good. i am thoroughly enjoying every time i get a notification from this thread. love your zoos faye. and to willbrats.... i am very close to going to get a hammer coral. but i am torn between the hammer and the torch.

i don't know what these are yet. they grow extreamly fast. they're fairly squished looking since they just attached to the rock. i had it pressed up against something to get it to stay on.

Mr funktastic, thank you! I have more zoas but the pics aren't great. I got those from blue zoo as a "Vietnam mix". Hard to tell from the pic but there's a large purple people eater in there and around the back of the rock there's a bunch more. They were pretty cheap too.

i just picked this frag up from my LFS. i dont know the technical name for the red zoos. but i sure do love the way they look. they were already opening even while i was acclimating them. they seem to have adjusted fast.
