So I got 3 really cool zoas from the LFS but didn't have name labels. So though I feel silly asking for their silly retail names I would still kind of like to know:
These I couldn't find anything close to a name: They have a very lined green center with orange tentacles

These are a lot like bloodsuckers but with a dark purple center that bloodsuckers don't have:

Call me crazy but with so many different zoas out there it's nice to have a reference point when you're talking to other reefers. Its a good way to describe what you have, what you're looking for, or colors and types you don't like. Beyond that, people can attach as much or as little significance to a name as they choose. Say you were to tell me you had punkrockers to swap, I'd know exactly what you meant (and I concur). The other ones are interesting. Like a gobstopper with a green skirt. But, the whiteish mouth would make you think jawbreaker hornet - which it's not. I'll think on it and let's see if anyone else has any ideas. It looks pretty interesting, any chance you can get us a pic under blues w/ a mild filter?

The same people who name the Zoas are the ones who name weed and cereal
