Mind trick Zoa

[Stan-Lee]

Hi Guys, i'm looking at some information on these. They're currently selling for £100 pp in the UK ( $131.05 US and $177.65 Aus ) are they worth the price ? and how are they to maintain.

 

[Capitol Reef Corals]

I've never seen these before or anything really similar. But I definitely think they are worth $130pp USD. I'd pay around $150-200USD for them if they ever make their way to the states.

I think it’s one of those questions that it’s worth the price if you like it so much you ‘need’ to get it for your system.

I’ve paid up to £140 for a coral that I just had to have so......

You haven’t got to buy it, but I would! Lol.

I know me neither when I search for them online it's usualy US stores who have them so I don't know I think they're gorgeous

I know the feeling I'm so tempted it looks fantastic

I would be careful with the color. Seems like the pic is altered quite a bit. Could be Rainbow Rastas.

Those are pretty nice though, man

 

[Camaro Show Corals]

bump lets see whos growing these

 

[littlebigreef]

They’re fairly common in Europe. Less so here. $150 is the going rate, I see some sites have them listed for $200pp. They grow at a moderate pace. Seem to frag pretty well. A couple of these are already sold. Just cut last wknd so they’re still healing.

 

[SplishySplashy]

They kinda look like speckled Kraks but the pics also look heavily edited or just very blue.

 

[littlebigreef]

My pics were taken with a very mild orange filter but the lights are XHO reefbrites and actinic bulbs are running too.

Oh i see. Never the less, beautiful zoas you got there. They have a lot of details.

 

[surcalation]

My LFS has some in. They are more of a matte colour in real life.

 

[Saltyreef]

I have some of these mind tricks from the UK. Last i saw they wanted $250/$300uSD for a polyp.

Mine grew then receeded and now holding steady.

Wont be offering any for a while.
Nice collection above tho!

Unless they are altered or using specials filters to bring out the colors. Otherwise, they are beautiful!

 

[surcalation]

Found the phone pics I took of them. No SLR, no filter just a Nokia 3 with a coral viewer dish so the wave makers aren't turned off under radions.

There below the mega rainbows and next to the wango tango's? With a white outline

And on the next picture there is another frag at the bottom on the right which seems to have captured some colour. I was more interested in the seduction zoas

The only filter i use is a blue reduction on a cell phone. Not really any lens tricks here. Just need to be able to correct the color of the coral when the phones camera is being washed out by the blue LEDs.

Colors are the same in person to the naked eye

 

[surcalation]

Not trying to knock anyone, just sharing my experience of them. Don't want to offend anyone. Definitely worth seeing them in the flesh.

 

[littlebigreef]

Someone had mentioned color alteration about the pics I posted. I don't use a very aggressive filter but I do run reef brites XHO which make everything pop more than just the T5's. Like many zoas you just have to see them in the flesh.

They're growing well for me but I have heard from a few other growers that they sometimes hit a wall. Think I've got two frags available if anyone is in the market.

I hit that wall hard.
Hallucinations were the same for me.
