    The only response I get on google for "Golden empire zoas", is you lol.... So I guess I'm no help there. They are awesome. I'd love to get my hands on some.

    Zoanthids are often renamed just to sell them. They are worth what someone will pay for them. Sometimes a frag of eagle eyes will sell for $5 on e-bay, sometimes $25- it just depends on who is bidding. You need to be careful when buying zoos since they look very different under different lighting. What you see in the picture, or even the seller's tank, you may never see in your tank. I would also suggest purchasing clumps if at all possible. Buying single polyps is so, so risky- you only need to lose one polyp for it to be a total loss.

    They are pretty trick looking. C'mon Mike put a pic up before I steal it off the site and do it myself.

    Personally I would pay more than $15 per polyp but thats just me. The only polyp I ever paid $100 for melted. JF God of War
