Zoas and an Unknown Coral : Hitchhikers


Recommended Posts

Well, it's been slightly more than a month since I set up my tank.

These 3 here are some hitchhikers that seem to be thriving.

There's still a mushroom or 2 that seem to be doing okay as well.

Totally clueless for this one. It's growing on a tiny rock, about the size of a gum ball. There were only 6 mega small bleached polyps. Now there are quite a few and it's spreading over the rock. They seem to have a slight luminous yellow tinge to them. It's doing real well too.

These have grown 2 new polyps since I got the Live Rocks.

Still at 5 Polyps but I see a new bud forming.

Help me to ID these guys.

Your help is greatly appreciated.

first one is a leather coral.

how do you want to identify the zoas? by scientific defition, they are already identified as zoanthids. by colloquail reefeing terms, the first one is a reverse gorilla's nipple and the second one, i have no idea.
