    My thoughts on I.D.ing zoas is a lost cause. Bottom line is they are zoas (I think from what I can tell from your picture).. Low to med light and med flow IME.

    You'll never find a definite name for the zoas. Your actually better off just naming them yourself. How about green lanterns. Lol

    I have tried to ID zoas that have and looked at hundreds of pictures and never found a definite answer on any of them.
