WOW, those pictures were very inspiring and motivating to cater more to my beloved zoas in my tank at home. I am triing to figure out why one of my colonies at home are not as happy as they once were, while the neighbour zoas are just fine?? Good to hear that others sometimes bang their head on the wall too at times. Thanks to all that posted, i will be following this thread for sure. I will post pics later.
Cheers Ronnie

perhaps being picked on or nipped at...nudis,fish,bristleworms,crabs etc. try moving them to a different spot if its none of the above and see if it helps, unless they are completely grown in in which case youll just have to observe them day and night to see when they open and why they open or close

Ran a quick google search on "jokers" and yes! That Is exactly them! Thank you! I bought a colony of greens just because I saw this tiny purple one with a green skirt on the back of it. So I got it home, fragged the single polyp, and now I have what you see in the pic! One of my favorite zoas that I own for sure.
Now I NEED to get some tubbs blues, but can't find em around me. Ugh

You mean I got one right!?...... Yay!......sometimes you find the sweetest little surprises hitched on to another coral colony..... Nice score!

Man! I'm envious of all these pictures! I wish I could keep zoa's alive, I've had better luck keeping SPS alive. They always seems to melt away after about a month.
