Default Premium zoo -- frag for trade (Edmonton)
I have a small (~10 polyp) frag of very nice bubblegum zoo. I am interested in trade for another premium zoo frag of similar size... Local only.

The bubblegum is olive green-brown skirt, vibrant turquoise body, peach (pink) centre.

Matthew

Bubble Gum zoos are actually purple/violet faced with pink disk. Someone in edmonton is selling misidentified "Bubble Gum" zoos... Not saying it's Matt, but it might help in the sale if there is proper identification.

The zoos in these incidences (and from the description) are commonly called Green Bay Packers... from Tonga Shipments. Really pretty, with or without actinic.

Close, the skirt is a bit less brilliantly green, but close. OA sold them as "bubble-gum". Thanks for the correction. And thanks for the link to zoaid! The link below is from OA, and pictures them as sold to me. They've coloured up a bit from that picture, but it is representative.

Zoaid is a fun site... the closest on there is called "baby back blues". The colour isn't quite right, but lighting and all...

They're not for sale... zoo trade only. If you've got a good'un, pm me a picture!

Matt

Sorry but the picture you posted looks like the Green Bay packer/Boy scout...

Baby Back Blues are blue faced almost to the point of white...

Seriously.. Just go with name green bay packer is the color. That's what Ocean Aquatics BC was selling.

Here's something I have always wanted to mention. Common names have no validity when describing an organism. Names vary from region to region, and therefore are equally valid.

Only Latin binomials are scientifically correct when naming an organism. However, I don't think these zoanthid subspecies , or Morphs as people like to call them have ever been properly described or named. Therefore, any name given is as valid as any other.
