I won these on eBay and they were listed as Armor of Gods. Every picture I've seen for AOGs do not look like this. They are colorful and I'm more into looks, not names, but I am curious. Anyone know what they are?

I agree...AOGs that I've seen are usually purple center, reddish mid section and purple skirts.
Yes mine are above. The "reddish" color is pink (magenta) under t5 with a purple plus bulb installed. They probably look more red under LED or metal halide. It's amazing how much different light spectrums can change the hue.

But yeah the ones that you won are not Armor of Gods although they are quite beautiful :D

This is them shortly after going in my tank. The pink is really bright as is the yellow on the skirt. The picture doesn't do it justice.

They are definitely not AOGs. I have seen these before but can't remember the name. I'll check a few places that I may have seen them and I'll let you know but I find.

I'm the same way...they look kinda familiar but I can't place them. I'm not great with names either. I thought gobstoppers but the center is blue and the skirts have yellow in them. The pink is about as bright as I have ever seen too. I have other zoas with pink and these are way brighter.

I was also thinking Everlasting Gobstopper but it depends on his lighting. It looks very different in the different shades of lighting. I thought it could also be baby pinks but the heads may be too large to be baby pinks

I did a search through a few zoa ID websites and the closest thing I found was Everlasting Gobstopper as well. I'm thinking it's possibly a morph
