Thread is over 2 years old. Was bumped because someone wanted a zoa ID from a post in it

Oh duh lol my brain was not working this morning I guess.

“ATTR’s true blues”. Sadly you will not find them anywhere…. I was the only one with them and the tank crashed and the person I gave a backup colony to who had blue lights thought they were ugly (duh blue lights on blue) and didn’t save them when they fell into his rock… I am still ticked about that.

That is the closest I have seen yet. I would love to see those under 10k tubes. Also lots of the blues drop their color in tanks quickly. These held color for over a year.

these are the fluorescent ones with bright gold, yellow and green (labeled 1) next to the purple space monsters(labeled 2) under white lights. Under blue lights, the colors are super intense.
I think a nice blue and a true red Zoanthid will complement nicely. Hence the search for a true blue Zoa.
BTW I have no idea what those gold/yellow/green zoas are, the LFS has no idea too! but it fluoresces even in normal daylight.

I would get the spidermans.............they are a deep blue and the red skirt really sets them. I've had Tubbs original and the Spidermans are nicer by a long margin.
