Hi all. I got these to sell at a show and multiple people asked to buy because they did not recognize it. Made me decide not to sell til I figured out what I had. Looked through zoanthids.com and could not find. Google identified as Nuclear Green Palythoas which I don’t agree so figured I’d ask here.

Thoughts?

I have Rastas and they look nothing like this.
Yeah, I was thinking a color morph but it's unlikely. Too much green on the face. There's a thin band of what appears to be yellow and another thin band of what appears to be orange right at the edge but I guess the colors are in the wrong order for Rastas.

My first thought on all light green/yellow zoas are either Scarface or lemon heads, but I don't think this is any of those. I found a pic online but I could not find an ID on it. I was thinking of the one on the top left. And since it is attached to the other zoas foots, I am wondering if it is a color morph or if they put the two zoas together, so maybe if we can find the IDs of the other zoas we find the ID of the zoa?
