    ok.1. Zoanthus SPP

    top ones are from Samoa Islands or east pacific . They like cool (76-79 degrees) rough (not hard or fast) waters and intense light, but will do ok (Slow grow in less flow and light.) The names are all made up. Its Zoanthus SPP for sure. just frag it to a rock and forget about it.

    ok. 2 PPE Zoanthus SP

    These are the most common Zoa out in the hobby. Med light, so they extend just a bit so they will stagger, any flow and forget about them. online they call them Purple people eaters. PPE
    ++side note++ if you want large discs keep them just a bit under lite so they trumpet. then once a large colony has formed frag them to a higher spot and they will be awesome..
