I have learned a great deal from this site to say the least about both care and the truely amazing number of varieties out there.
I have begun to recieve donations from collectors to help my student's research projects on zoas out and I am on my way to the C-sea frag swap on the 25th
What has become plain already is that differing varieties need differing conditions. (no surprise at all) however I began to wonder this morning looking at the vast amounts of reading I have not come across specific varieties that have been identified as ones to avoid for a specific reason or other
In particular, I am concerned about getting ones who have such specialized needs as to fail with little warning etc
Which varieties may not be good canidates for the average keeper or which ones need out of the normal reef conditions or help (special food sources) very intense light or very dim lighting??
thanks in advance
David
