Hello,
I ordered these Crybabies from a local coral farm, but what I go seems to have much longer tentacles and very long stems, perhaps reaching for light but none of my other zoas are. I just want to make sure I don’t have a more toxic variety perhaps a palythoa rather than a zoanthid as I try to yank hair algae form the location. It kind of looks like a Palythoa. I attached one picture from the website of what was advertised and what I got in my tank now. What do you all think?! Thank you!

Those look like Pandora Box zoas to me. Much more similar than what they have advertised.
