They might be the same zoas, because like I said under the fish stores lights it was definitely yellow. Watermelon sounds better though lol mine have 2 rows of skirt so maybe that's the difference.

@ChiCity has it with whamming watermelon. If you’re only using vendor images or Google images to ID it you’re never gonna get it right.

Due to them both being well traveled strains they’ve been diluted down and you’ll see the name being used synonymously for watermelons. The key distinguishing characteristic between the two is not the skirt. It’s the color of the mouth area. Watermelons are, understandably, a reddish orange where as, also not surprisingly, eagle eyes are a more yellowish orange or orangish gold. If you put the two next to each other the difference is apparent.
