My zoa frag has 2 heads that are larger and different colors. I'm not sure if this is a problem, or possibly a different type of zoa mixed in. The 2 heads usually stays open all the time unless a tank mate gets close to it. Any info is greatly appreciated.
Thanks.

Those are different zoas. If you want to separate them, you can cut the frag plug with bone cutters, and cut in between the polyps with a razor knife if necessary. Just make sure to wear nitrile gloves for safety. Or just leave them be. Looking good though! :beaming-face-with-smiling-eyes:
