They look like the carribean/african/steel blues to me.
Alot of people still call them blue hornets though. I have some and they are really nice looking although alot of people say tend to melt.
In another post someone said the real ones have alternating skirts such as yellow,blue,yellow,blue. Not all the same color.

hmmm makes you wonder if his Pink *******, and Cpt American paly auctions are the real deal as well

Well he said he got the PB from Sdguy and thats original owner of the PB. He is a member of this board so would not be hard to find out. WWC is the original owner of the CAP so same applies. I think he has the real dael on those not sure on the BH dont care for them to many to close for me

I've seen those being called African Blue Hornets. They have been coming in all over the place. Even the local fish store that usually has a bunch of crap had several large colonies of them and a ton of frags. I only ended up buying a 10-12 polyp frag for $12.99 since a lot of people have had bad luck with them. They are really nice zoanthids, but with the mortality rate on these I didn't want to risk purchasing a huge colony.
