What's the 2nd zoo in th post before last? Looks kind of Nightmarish....

Also, like I said, not convinced that's a Monti, just doesn't look right. Any ideas anyone? I guess we may be able to tell better after a few days.

Pavona looks close... We have a Pavona but we have the Cactus Pad one. I think it's called that. I think I may have to go take a picture for him:playful:

I ordered another lens, so hopefully I can get some better pictures.

This is another picture. I got it from Captivating Coral about a month ago? I forgot what Mike called it. I think he said "Satan's Blood". It's a brownish color with a dark rim around the eye. It started with one poly, now has 2 babies! It looks similar to Scarface.

Not a monti, thinking pavona maybe? Tough to tell from the pic and it is not opened up.

Yeah, no idea! It was from Red Sand & I heard the BOD bought them from him.

Those Rastas are looking good, is that sunny d's in front of them?

The Rasta's are awesome! Yep, those are Sunny D's!

Everyone PM me which zoas you like of his. I will "borrow" them from him when we move the tank. He'll never miss them.

It's been awhile since I updated this. I since moved as of the end of May. It was a PITA, but I did it. Out of everything, only 2 Zoa's didn't survive. One being the one I REALLY LIKED!! I also didn't update this thread when I went to Dr. Mac's(Pacific East Aquaculture).

I had a pH problem when the tank was moved. It was reading low 7.6. Tank I believe has stabilized at 7.9-8.0. I've had the windows open the last few days, so it might of upped it. I just closed them now & turned on the A/C because it was a little warm in here. I also just purchased and received an extra pH probe today. The new pH probe is reading 1.0 higher.

I need more fish.
I keep buying corals.

Here are some pictures.
