Good grief no, I am not a scientist. I have a diploma in Horticulture. It was in a Botany course that I learned about proper naming conventions.:silly:

Bob,
I'd have to agree with you on the fact that a certain colour morf of zoanthid can't be mis-identified by choosing to call it by one of the less popular trendy names that others identify them by.

Keeping in mind that one zoanthid can actualy look very different depending on which one of the more than likely hundreds of lighting choices available.

If one lighting choice was set as a standard it would be feasable to to use these trendy names to identify them by colour, but since this is not the case it seems redundant to to argue over one trendy name over another.
