Nice looking colony there, John.

I like te zoas and palys that stand out.... But the ones you can see without using a magnifying glass.

So many zoas. So many colors. Its like painting a canvas. It would be nice to have a tank of zoas for each wall, as we do with our best paintings.
As soon as you find the best looking zoa, theres another around the corner thats just as good or even better. As you choose your favorite art
so should you choose your favorite zoa. Blue LEDs really make them stand out and pop. I seem to have a favorite different zoa I like to see each week.

This is very good question as I have often wondered the name, for it does not matter, but only to glimpse at the beauty of art under the Blue LED.
I have been told fire n ice, no its not cant be, Orange zoas. But could it be Super Nova. And I love my coffee.

They are older pics but you get the idea.. They look crazy during sun up and down. So much surreal color that t5s cannot reproduce..

Hey sherita, I'm not an expert, but those look a lot like Mohawks, or a similar morph.

For zoos I gotta go with tubs blues and purple hornets

Sherita

@the_wolfeman - yes, I own all of those, plus about 150 more varieties (no, I am not kidding) :)

@jvene1 - it's possible that they are. Right now they are still coloring up, they were pretty washed out when I got them. Whatever they are, I like them :)

I appear to have 2 colonies colliding, orange spotted zoa and alien eye. Im not sure where the sparkly blow pop came from in the middle.

Yeah, I loved my mohawks! The tiny speckles make it look like it has a cool texture to it!

Quite possibly a morph of the two..

They look similar to fairy dust palys? Super fast growers if they are happy! :)

I've got fairy dust, these are def not them. Way more luminous gold on these guys. Hard to capture with the camera when they are like that.

These are starting to show purple on the oral disc, it's going to be really interesting to see the final outcome.
