I bought these as very small frags at my LFS as kind of a pot luck type thing. I like the color of them, but have never seen zoa's with such a shaggy hair cut. Is this normal? Picture isn't too clear, its taken with a cell phone camera. They weren't spreading all that fast so I put them into an area with a little more flow and the colony has tripled its size in a month.

FLOW does that , elongates the skirts

If the flow is causing that, I'm gonna move my powerhead closer. Never have seen that before. Pretty neat.

It may be flow or it may just be the zoa's. I have a rock with two different zoas on it and they are growing side by side. One has a short skirt/fringe and the other has a long skirt/fringe. They are this way in high flow areas and low flow, although they are not as large in the low flow tank.
