Zoa ID

[mbizzle89]

Hey all!
Picked up this cool zoa frag the other day. They were labeled “Atom Bomb”. Can someone please confirm ID? I cannot seem to find them online.

Mandarin Orange maybe?

The Mandarins I see are all solid color. They don't have that cool pattern. I was hoping they would be one of these, but none of them look similar. Maybe @littlebigreef knows.

Whatever they are, they're very cool!

It’s likely a recently imported wild with a vendor created name on it. Not a mandarin orange.

A name is only as good as it is widely recognized. You can take a look a ECC/ corals.com for comparables.

That said, it’s a good looking zoa, bold colored center, nice dusting of speckles and solid orange skirt. Should look great as a colony.
