    very nice palys/zoas, there's soooo many of them it's hard to know exactly though.

    The only thing I don't like about zoas is that to the new reefer when you see all these amazing close-up pics you're like "wow"! But, then you get them and they're so much smaller than you think they are. I wish some of these zoas were as large as mushrooms, they can have such amazing coloration.
