The bleeding hearts zoas are undoubtedly one of the nicest pink zoas in the hobby. In addition to the vivid pink body, the zoas have a bi-colored red skirt. These zoas really pop under actinics and should be placed in medium flow area.

The Purple Hornet seems to be one of the newer zoas that recently came into the market as of this writing. I remember seeing this zoa in a picture once about a year ago but no one seemed to be trading it at the time. It’s nice to see that it’s finally coming into the market – even at its crazy price.

As you can see, this zoa sports a purple body with a distinctive yellow ring around the mouth and what appears to be a alternating purple and yellow skirt – definitely a gem in the industry.
So do you have these for trade or sale? If so, please post in the comments section below.

As you can see, these zoas look pretty amazing in actinics as well. Thanks Jarrod for sending the pictures.

Armageddon is one of the most striking red zoanthids in the hobby and a quick peek at its plate shows you why. Not only does this morph glow in actinic lighting, the pattern resembles part nuclear explosion, part event horizon, part gates of hell.
Due to the popularity of this coral, you can trade for a number of other exotic corals by having it in your collection. This zoa is also easy to propagate when placed in medium flow and high lighting conditions.

If you want to talk about N-I-C-E orange zoas, you have to check out the Creamsicles. I’m not sure where the origin of the name came from but whoever named them must have thought these resembled the old school popsicles or something. In a way, I guess they do.
The center of the Creamsicles do not pop as much as say… Eagle Eyes or Dragon Eyes, but they are definitely colorful in terms of orange zoas.
If you’re looking to acquire these beauties, you can probably find a good number of them in your local community – just check out your local reef club or online coral forums.

Similar to the Green Death, the Purple Death is another one of the large polyp death corals. The colors on the Purple Death can vary depending on tank conditions but ideal colors for this coral is an electric purple which photograph well like the one above.
Like the PPE’s, Purple Death palys are currently in high demand and can be traded if you find zoa enthuiasts with this coral in their collection. Please keep in mind these palys do slime when stressed and they are more toxic than most zoas – which says a lot.
