    I received this piece of green zoa a while back from a friend of mine. I fragged it because it was growing covering almost all of the rock it was on.

    I just no clue what it is called. Can anyone help me on this.

    Thanks

    I found a link calling them super green zoanthids.... Makes sense considering how green they are

    It is a dry heat, yeah right !
    Radioactive dragon eyes or greenbay packers looks like it could be either one.

    Both are fast growers.

    They're green zoas. Help stop the coral naming insanity, all it does is raise prices. LOL
