Mine actually look a lot like Jims, but they are very bright! BRIGHT PINK and BRIGHT YELLOW. Jafoca has seen them he can chime in and let you all know how nice these things are.

I bought this a week ago from steve from new alameda aquatics. He calls them crazy daisies. I think they are bit different from what you have here. The pinks on the skirt is a lot brighter on this one.

i love this paly and probably my one of my top wanted morphs, im in UK and they just dont make it across the pond :(

or so i thought...... so how lucky was i to find a single faded polyp as a hitchiker on a dull brown mushroom rock :)

but wat a heart breaker story this has become cause after the single polyp grew into 6x polyps it then recently bleached white and lost all its colour, followed sadly by 5x polyps dieing..... the 1x polyp remaining has recovered most of its colour now and grown a new bud...... so my fingers and legs and everything is crossed for survival and lots of growth, i might be going a little loopy as i actually sweet talk the little fella to grow some more lol.

Just picked up a frag a while back from Miguel. Still needs a little more coloring up but its legit nonetheless.

It seems that there are a few look alikes, I happen to have another one similar to Pink Elephants. Here are the look alikes.

really great looking palys. i think whats most interesting about them is the contrast of colors with the green inside and pink outside. i think the name is definitely a good fit =)
