    I realize that something cant be called by name w.o lineage.

    That being said.. if these had lineage would they be a black hornet? or some other similar morph? Or do they currently exist under another name... just wondering. Thanks guys!

    They look pretty close but differences in cameras and lighting, make it impossible to be sure over the internet.

    Its name is a beautiful Zoa. The names were good for a while but now it has gotten too ridiculous. If I told you a list of the zoas i had in my tank you would probably be just as clueless after i said the names. The names at first were good to help differ. But now pretty much every zoa has some 5 word name. And a lot of the names arent descriptive of them. You have a beautiful specimen there, and looking next to it you have some more i can see as well. Thanks for sharing this beautiful pic.

    i have both of those in my tank, the zoas and the sps. i think sps is birds of paradise and the guy who sold me the zoas was calling them eagle eyes? but the center of mine are orange not black, with green polyps and a purple center. they look amazing under my led actinics
