I love the :naka:

I've had them for about 2 months under 250 MH 10k (20k in the middle of the tank though), and they grew from 3 polyps to 21, no joke. I have traded them for AWESOME stuff, including and acan frag... The middle went from pinkish purple when I first got them to fuschia, no rings at all, and the mouth matches the oral disk (but is white inside). The skirt is this emerald green... I keep telling myself I am going to grow it out but then I get another trade PM, and I break down...

Under 10k, they are nice. Under 14k or 20k, they are really awsome. I know several on here who have frags of em :)

IMO, you should be submitting a pic to ZoaId to get em named... I think you should be the one to do it before anyone else does!

I can't come up with a catchy name, I do like marvins sugestion :) My ego is already swelling.

Marvin, from my experience with them, the skirt isn't ever solid green, but will get a lilttle brighter. Look close and you should find a second color (pink or orange) on the skirts as well.

The skirts on mine under 20k 250 HQI MH are a neon green with like black speckles in the skirts. About halfway up the tank is where they seem to do best.

Hey Paul, how about Alien Explosions, for their awesome growth rate??

sounds good.. I will keep my eye on 'em.. :)

seems like a fast grower so it'll be awesome to have a 30+ polyps mini colony of them..

Wow, I wonder if that means the black speckles in the skirts of mine will turn a diff color... would rock if the skirt would turn purple and green, with a fuschia oral disk like that.

Paul, they aren't mine to submit... I'd feel bad doing it even with your permission. Those are truly something special and your name should appear under them on ZoaId for orginating them...

Got a couple of frags, but trading is out untill I get my zoa pox cured and out of the way! Zoa pox haven't touched my palys at all, but they marry be a carrier of the pest responsible, so no go for now. Like I sad, I know several folks here who have em. With their rate of growth, most of the should be able to frag a few polyps.

Nah, they came from the ocean. I just sent them a little farther. Besides, my pictures stink! The only pictures that are worth a darn are the ones you and a friend of mine in jax took.

KK, I will submit the pics but will tell Whodah to name you in the folder... Thanks for sharing them so freely to all of us. They are the best ones in my tank, imo.. even better than all my people eaters, jmho.

:D
