Zoa ID Please?

[ShanePike]

Picked up some new zoas this weekend, and the vendor didn't know what they were called. Here are three poor shots of the same zoa:

The mouth is white or a very light lavender. The ring is maybe a dark purple or crimson. The outer color is a pale green, The skirt is basically the same color as the mouth.

Any idea?

seems like a very colored down "off-branch/morph" little shop of horror.

going off your description of colors, i'd take a wild guess at rainbow rhino zoa.

That's a really interesting call. It's definitely not as colorful as other ones I'm seeing, but I wonder if it will color up

In the rhinos, I'm seeing a lot of light blue that this one definitely doesn't have and no dark center.

Thank you!

Maybe you can find it there. If not you should enjoy looking.

they likely will, but i didn't mean to imply they're actually LSOH zoa's.... lol

Nah, I think the LSOH actually look a lot closer than these.

It’s likely a ‘vampire’ strain which is a catch-all for a large group of similar zoas (there’s a series of iterations on the name as well). I’d suggest Google images for a bit and see what you find.

As to your other post ‘Mind tricks’ is the original name and they’re all the same. Some people just add in ‘Jedi’ for whatever reason.

Thanks! Yeah I can totally see the resemblance, even more than the LSOH, but I don't see any vamps where the mouth/very center is such a light color. In all the ones I see, that purple/crimson color goes all the way to the center.

There is a HUGE variety of "vampire" zoa's. Its more so the markings on the oral disc that gives it away (which I show below circled in red below).
