Hey Z&p Fans

[AdInfinitum]

When I got these they were supposed to be Sunrise Sakura (not that I care much, I like them) but as they grow they lose most of their yellow. I don't want to misrepresent what I have, so let me know...do they look like the ones you have or something else.

I'm fine with them being a no name too, just want to get it right.

Stupid zoas, never look the same in the next tank, I'm
Assuming you got those from me, but they look nothing like mine lol.

The skirt is was more pronounced on yours ... Very strange

Try a google of "Pineapple Express" , regardless of what Google says don't try to smoke them. Are they more similar to that brand?

They do kinda resemble Pineapple Express.... They don't look like any version of Sakura sunrise or sunrise Sakura I've seen....this is why I asked for the origin from Poseidon.

Actually got them at Fragfest. they were very small and all yellow in the center but as they grew the yellow stayed the same size???

That looks a lot closer Jerry but there seems to be quite a bit of variation in what people call Pineapple Express...Typical...


Btw Jerry, The ones I described to you and you suggested Alpha Omega was dead on I think.

Ben, now that summer is over and I have some time, I'll send you a pic of that odd blue and black encruster that might be a similar species to your orange/red one from FAL... I hadn't forgotten...

 

[AdInfinitum]

Brandon, these are the Sunny D's i got from you. I just changed my halides from 14000k to new 20000k and they look absolutely unreal.

and Jerry, that is the favia I got from you, front left, out of focus... Very cool green, purple, orange mouths...pics later...

 

[harleymike]

I have sunny d's and they don't look like that.
hmmmmmm

Mine/Brandon's are a solid match to Zoanthids.com and a few other "name" retailers.

What do yours look like??? Pics!!

 

[harleymike]

I'll try to get some pics up asap.
They came from bill at incredible.

 

[AdInfinitum]

Pic on Bill's site looks the same/similar...

 

[harleymike]

i won them from his Facebook. But maybe they aren't sunny ds.
Mine are a pinky centre and dark skirt.I will try to get a pic.

[harleymike]

not the best pic, but fairly accurate. My tank is still recovering from a alk swing.

 

[unibob]

Better or worse colouring?

I don't remember them looking anything like yours. They are probably a little pal still.

 

[manmadecorals]

Those are common pink/yellow zoas that seems to have had their colors shocked a bit. In time, their colors will return. A few have named those zoas "Pink Flamingos". Pink Flamingos, Sakura Sunrise, and Pineapple Express are three commonly mistaken zoas due to their likeliness.

 

[harleymike]

Mine are looking better today. And now i can actually look down with a plexiglass viewer and see them from the top. They look closer to your's now. I would say they are sunny D's.

Guys, just an FYI... Do not use zoanthids.com or Neptune's cove as a main source of reference... It's fine if you need a point of reference but always double check with coralpedia and google images or with licensed divers that harvest the reef for sale such as Jason Fox or "Tyree"

Soon you'll find that zoanthids.com and neptune's cove are big name coral shops that just throws fancy names because either they are too lazy to find the name out themselves or they just want to make quicl cash on unknown corals.
