Need some help identifying this zoa. I got some GSP 2 months ago and there was a tiny little nubbin of a zoa in it. It barely looked like one, smaller than a pencil eraser. I seperated it and put it on a rock near my other zoas. Now its one of the biggest in my tank and I have no idea what it is. I have looked through google and a ton of websites that sell zoas and none look just like this one. Its about the size of a dime. I am sorry about the bad pics but it is slightly turned away from the glass so I have to shoot at an angle through the glass which makes it extra blurry.

In case its tough to see in the pics. Its got a very orangish fluorescent face, the skirt is like 2 tiers one up one down and the mouth is fluorescent green. The closest it resembles, to me is maybe Fruity Pebbles or Black Widow.

Any help is appreciated!

It's a very nice purply one. The names are made up and you'll find there are a dozen names for every color variation imaginable.
