Hi so I was wondering if anyone could help me out. I’m tryin to identify these zoas as I recently purchased a hidden frag at the lfs with two different polyps on the plug. So I got excited and purchased it however I’m noticing they’re pretty similiar to a previous zoa I had in the tank. I’m new, any help would be appreciated!

Bit hard to tell with the blurry pics/dirty glass. But looks like a version of the Sakura Sunrise, AOI, and possibly Pinwheels in the other pic.

Best way to ID in my opinion is to look at other well-known zoa sellers with large collections and try to match it up.

Thankyou, I thought they may be aoi also..I’m a huge fan of the orange ones which is why I grabbed the frag. What a deal. I’m fiddling with the aquarium cam currently as my water is a little cloudy. Will update cleaner picture of the second

Hmm those do not look like AOI zoas. AOIs are bright blue with a yellow clear/defined center :/

Either way, does look like a nice deal for 1 frag plug!
 
Yeah it’s more of a bright neon mouth
 
Not sure about the orange one, but very nice. Again, hard to tell but looking at the first picture, if I had to guess, scrambled eggs and Green Bay Packers.

I was worried the new polyp outer band was going to turn green like these ones. Thankyou both for your insight
