Does anyone know what type of zoas these are?

Looks like a Green Implosion Palythoa to me.

Thank you

The ones in the back kind of look similar to the fire and ice zoas that I have. In case you were looking for a name on those too. But there are so many that look so similar it can be hard to tell sometimes.

Each zoa has about 3 or 4 different names. IMO its more of a sellers gimmick with the names. That`s why I don't name them any more.

Interesting video that was posted today by Tidal Gardens today about palys and zoas about naming thought it was interesting and would share. If anything it is some cool close up footage of zoas.

Best response ever to a polyp identification question!
