Is this African Blue steel? I got a frag like this in a swap but I'm not sure what it is

LOL!!!! I'm the last guy here to give you the right cartoon names for your zoas, but I'll guess...

Blue or purple hornets?

No one's put a name to them yet, but I scooped them up at a recent coral farmer's market and there were a few other frags so I'm guessing they'll start popping up sooner or later

It's funny they looked awful in the tank, then when I got them home they looked like a totally new coral lol

Would you say it's a Zoanthus sp. or a Palythoa sp.?
I would think it's a Zoanthus sp.

Grandis.

The zoanthus spp. Just means that they haven't officially been described as a species. My research project will change that for many known zoanthids.

I haven't seen any like this before. I want just 1 lol.

I know alot of people think the trade names are useless, but it's alot easier to say, "I have whammin watermelons for sale." than, "I have zoanthis with a green skirt purple oral disk and an orange mouth." or whatever. Plus W.W. For whammin watermelon fits alot better on a 2mL sample test tube.

That s great. Lol isn't it odd how you can pick out an ugly looking coral with the gut feeling that it will be beautiful in your tank? I swear it happens all the time.

Would you be interested in selling any once they become established in your tank? (sorry to the forum gods if this isnt okay)

I know what that means. I'm just asking his opinion on the genuses' (Zoanthus, Palythoa) level. Good luck with your research! I really hope you could bring some real names for us here in the future.

I'm ok with the cartoon names and respect the people who likes them. I don't think they are useless, but I'm not a real fan of them either. That's just me.

There is no "forum gods" here, but for sure you should go to the right place for that type of question, or send him a PM, please.

I'm gonna be growing them out for a while so they'll prolly be all over the hobby before I ever even frag them, but they had to come from someone with a big colony of them somewhere along the line, just don't get suckered into paying too much for them.

BeanMachine · 10/15/2012, 04:55 PM

Organism those are really nice... I was at CFM and would have grabbed a frag but maybe they were all sold. Good find.

I love the orange bam bams. Mine have survived a couple of meltdowns over the years and still going strong.

So many are really pretty, but I am a fan of these... we call them Green Star Sparkles but not sure who coined that.
