I think this is the one you are thinking of. :biggrin:

I guess we will see if they are the same? i didnt get a huge amount of them so it wasnt too expensive but if they look like that for 10 a polyp i would be dissapointed.Pics can be deceiving! Did you get those exact ones on a previous shippment from ultimatefrags?

Yes pictures are deceiving. You can make a zoanthid look any way you want almost. In the picture I provided the zoos look almost the same. The ones I pictured did not come from Ultimatefrags, but from Canadian Reef a few years ago.

I don't think I will ever buy another zoanthid by looking at a closeup picture, as I have been very disappointed in the past. :sad:

I'm splitting the topic from the marineaquaria.ca thread because the above posts do not have anything to do with the coordination or logistics of the marineaquaria.ca frags order.

Discuss to your heart's content now the zoo closeups and how they don't reflect what a zoo actually looks like.

I have to agree, that picture of a zoo looks nothing like a typical zoo habitat to me. :razz:

lol hard not to laugh at a thread title like that...

It's pretty subjective.. I could easily say Bob's picture does not reflect the true colour of that zoo, and mine does even more closely resemble it, as another person could say the same thing. You take a chance... what looks good to you on the site may not look exactly like the zoo you ordered. Why? Not simply because it's a close-up , common... think about the camera being used, the amount of lighting around the zoo, the K rating of the bulb.. the type of bulb... placement in the tank...

It's more than one factor to consider... all in all, you take a chance and that's that. Here is a picture of the same zoanthid, placed high up in my tank under a 150w HQI 14k bulb... http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v2...1063Medium.jpg Looks a hell of a lot different than yours Bob :razz: and the website !

Ah hah, hahaha, hah... Laugh of the morning. That sure is an eye catching topic title Tony ;)

The picture looks like green skirted Bubble Gums, which is a very possible morph.

Do people think they are actually Eagle Eyes? Eagle Eyes are much nicer than Bubble gums IMHO... but to each their own :)

Some pics may be misleading, but ultimatefrags is a company that has goten alot of praise from lost of people so i think if you pay 10 dollars a polyp you will get somthing worth that much, just wait to see.

hah, naming zoos.. another thing IMO which is just silly. because then that leads to mis-classification of something that doesn't even exist really... there are too many morphs to say which is which.. to me , they are just zoos with different colours... if you wanna get technical though the other zoos on the rock are "bubble gums" i dunno what the others are called..
