I don’t really collect these for the same reason I avoid agaves. They morph, they display inconsistently yada yada, yada. Don’t know how long I’ve had these for or where they came from. They def present more yellowish. Including a rainbow infusion for a baseline.

No namer:

Jay, yours seemed to morph with a hue of red sparkled on the skirt than IFragits version. I like it a lot, a nice variant,what level do you have it in your tank, I seemed to read in one of your post you use Reefbrites and less white in your tank. I ran the same, but no white and the colors just pop and often gets better in time.

The zoas are all on the same level, about 3” off the top. Colony is in ~130-140par (they’re in the center of the trough, I have areas of lower par around the edges.)

The reefbrite is a blue and then I have a 4 bulb fixture with two ati coral plus and two blue plus bulbs. I def see what you’re talking about with the purple.
