In the original pic I had to adjust the white balance a little otherwise you would just see a blue zoa.
They do not have a green mouth, it may just be the blue lights changing the way the mouth looks. They are normal Leprechauns.
I got 1 polyp directly from Will at ASD at the beginning of spring. I have them in a 2 gallon pico tank. super low flow. Under AI Prime (non hd)
Roughly 8"-10" under the led. This is the only place I have found to keep these particular zoas happy. They have been very picky.
I also keep them under all blues @ 100% no whites whatsoever.
The pic they are closed because I just did my daily cleaning but they are the ones circled in red.

I split up my colony and had them in two different tanks. When I put them under Radions xr30 gen 3's their skirts were looking really good. I have since moved them and I am still having problems with the skirt returning to the top photo.

My 2nd colony below has never looked better than this current state. I'm not sure why.
Both plugs are in the same tank, so Im hoping the bottom plug will start to recover.
Since Spring 2017 I started with 1 polyp and now have roughly 24 polyps.
Picture was taken with Galaxy s8+ and quality is horrible.
