    Don't know if they are the same but these are mine. They even came with snowflake polyps in the bottom of the colony. I like these daisy's a lot!

    My halides are coming on right now. I'll have a better pic shortly. Mine look pretty close. The "leaves" I guess you could call them are darker and the center has a nice neon to it.

    The polyps @ the bottom of your pic look like clove polyps. Is that the same as snowflake?

    So far, 1 trip to the o-flow. I had a feeling that was going to happen just by watching I'ts behavior. I also shut down my makeshift wavemaker for fear that it may take refuge in the koralia while it's getting used to the tank. The dang thing is tiny. And I'm receiving very contradicting info on the net about coral nipping and not coral nipping... Anybody have any thing to add to that?
    Not to scare anyone from the species but, it is said that the nipping is very minimal.

    Mines have a really bright neon green center........camera settings aren't in order though:-/ The ones in the bottom stay that size.....really small. Those are full grown.....hence the name snowflake. The clove polyps tend to be a bit bigger.....I think:confused:

    On the Goby, I know about 4 people with the Green Goby in their tanks and they have never had a problem with them.

    I had a pair (I sold them with my old tank) and they never nipped any coral! However, they like to spend time in branching corals: Acropora sp., even leather fingers.
