Well after having my 55 with some LPS (froggy, candy canes) I finally was able to get my hands on some zoas from the LFS. The pics below are taken right after I put them in the tank and the later ones are from a week after they have been in the tank. I really like them and think they were a steal for $35 :) Let me know what you all think.

I really like how the center of some of them has a glowing orange tip. Kind of seems like there are two different kinds making up the rock.

Are those fire and ice? They look awesome... I think for $35, it's a steal. Great find divecj5!!!

Thanks for the compliments man. I'm not sure what they are. If you look in the second to last pic, there are some that have a plain center and then some of them have a orange "nip" in the middle.

Maybe someone else can identify them.

Hey guys...thanks for the compliments on the zoas and the tank. Needless to say I'm pretty adimant about magfloating the tank and I've been running some phosban and carbon in a phosban reactor for about a month now. It really seems to keep things in check.

Any ideas of what these zoas are? Just curious for my general knowledge.

They look like fire & ice to me. I wish I could get those for 35 from my lfs. They want 25.00 for about a 5polyp frag & they look alot more dull in color.
Good work.

Yeah, that's a steal for that size of rock. Nice piece, cool shape, etc..

Nice tank as well. I am planning on adding a phosband reactor to my tank as well, so good to know your having good results.
