Yeah, I had to say it.
So these two zoas are both regarded as hallucination zoas, both sold as such, and nobody complains when they get one or the other..
Right now I have both. They are very clearly different zoas.
These are not my pictures my camera can't shoot this level of detail but here's the comparison.
Let me know what you guys think!
Need to get to 25 meaningful posts before I can help people get some of my strain of Halls
I was gonna say hallucinations are the most overrated zoa in the industry then I saw thisThese are the ones I have

I do not think they are 'clearly different zoas'. They could be morphs of the same zoa. There are only minor differences. And FWIW - who cares.. There is no such animal as an'hallucination zoa'. it's a manufactured name. So I would humbly suggest they are both hallucination zoas. And so might something with completely different coloration.
precisely. Someone above said something about fake utter chaos as if there is such a thing. Utter chaos are probably the zoa most prone to morphing and unpredictability imoGood point, I think we all forget that there is 0 validity to the names we assign things once we step outside of scientific literature. I often wonder what it would be like if we used a system like C-numbers or L-numbers in catfish (for those unfamiliar with such system the simple version is each distinct species is assigned a number until given a proper latin name). The issue with implementing such a system on zoas is that we have no idea how many of these are different species or just ludicrous examples of polymorphism and thats before you factor in how they change under different lighting systems or water parameters. I suppose one could describe the taxonomic nature of palythoas and zoanthids is indeed Utter Chaos;Hilarious
Everything we know about zoanthids is a hallucination in and of itself...
You take the AOI, the story ends, you wake up in your bed and believe whatever you want to believe. You take the twizzler, you stay in wonderland and I show you how deep the rabbit-hole goes... 1001100100011011001010010ZOANTHIDS100101100110101010
Hopefully someone enjoys that, I think all the zoas pictured thus far are stunners!
This. Hundreds of wild collected zoa colonies are brought in to the US every week. When one of them looks like an existing "named" variety, it gets named and sold as such.And FWIW - who cares.. There is no such animal as an'hallucination zoa'. it's a manufactured name.
Dang it! The coral expo is tomorrow and there ya go posting expensive zoas! Last year somebody had a single head for 85.00.
