yes it is a fire and ice zoo.. but it is a poor picture of it... I dont' think the lighting does it justice.

Red skirt (fire) - Without the red skirt, I believe it's Aspen or Babyback.. depending on texture of face.

Blue Face (Ice) - Without the blue face.. it can be Sunburst, Ring of Fire, Orange delight.

Green mouth - final requirement for Fire and Ice zoo.. without the green mouth it is a morph of celestial.

"fire and ice" is just a name some guy gave them.....there are so many variants of zoos that there couldnt possibly be a name for all of them!!! great looking zoos though!! good find

Compiling pictures of zoos under various lighting conditions with all their naming "variations" and morphs.. and giving them standard generally accepted names.

I have over 2000 pictures right now, and perhaps 150 varieties.

We considered the possibility of setting up an area where people could publicly post the zoos they have to trade, and the zoos they are willing to accept in trade.

I've also been talking with other zoo fanatics to determine optimal growth conditions for zoos as well as environment modifiers that effect the way a zoo will look. ie:// long skirts - short skirts, color brilliance. I don't want information based on a reefers opinions. i want it based from valid research.

It's still in process however.

Bob, post a pic and I can try to ID it for you.
