Re: Zoo's!!!!!!!

so if you put two different types of zoos next to each other they will commingle peacefully? I have heard that they will take over other corals spots.

Re: Zoo's!!!!!!!

Yeah, zoo's are zoo's and colors don't make them a diff species so colors can be mixed with no probs.

All those names you hear, people just made them up. Pink panthers....sounds good to me.

That hammer isn't too rare, but not very common either. I've seen similar at 1 of the good not so LFS I visit.

Alto, that's a hammer coral. It's common, but the colors on that specific piece are outstanding. Keep in mind, it will look different under different lights, so even if you buy that exact piece, it may not look the same in your tank.

And yes, different types of zoas can be kept next to each other.

Re: Zoo's!!!!!!!

don't get me wrong I have seen a lot of hammers, but they usually don't have 3 stalks out of it that make it look like 3 different hammers almost. The ones I see are similar to my frogspawn but with hammers on top.

Re: Zoo's!!!!!!!

where do you all buy you zoos from? a LFS or online. I haven't really seen any of those bright colors at any LFS's.

I've gotten several corals and fish from them. All arrived in excellent shape and all survived.

I bought mine on ebay from seller who are near me, some from the frag swap, and I have got some coral through the mail from people off of RC.
