I went over to a ladies house that was getting out of the hobby.
I went there to get a montipora capricornis colony.
When I got there she asked me if I wanted the zoanthids.
Look what I found.:dance:

They must be eagle eye goggles.

It is.
And there are some emerald green ones on the other side that I'm having a hard time getting a good picture of.
There are some other zoanthids I got that are outstanding also.
The monti, turned out to be really browned out. But I'm happy.
Gotta charge the camera battery.

That's funny, that is really cool looks like they got melted together...kinda looks like some Brazilian carnival mask...

That's pretty awsome...

Does it close up normal like the other ones. I have had protopalys that looked like that before and they weren't able to close up all the way like normal.

Here is a frag of pinks I got from the same place. Looks like they must have fallen down behind something and bleached out.
They are soo white.:eek2:

HEHE good one.

On the last pic they looked a little bleached but at the same time so beautiful.They have a look like they are frosted,I wish my LFS or anyone local had stuff like this.
