esacjack Posted September 6, 2014 Share Posted September 6, 2014 Your question leads to a much debated topic over how to properly identify paly's or zoa's as the type of polyp. Some argue sediment uptake in the mat (coenenchyme) is a way to distinguish palythoa from zoanthid. However, truly, you will find 'zoanthids' with sand grown into their mat. So this is not a proper way of identifying/distinguishing them. Truth be told, there are 1000's of types of zoantharia and many more sub species. That being said, the polyp shown above is similar to a fairy dust paly, but the amount of blue in the image makes it hard to tell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FarmerTy Posted September 6, 2014 Share Posted September 6, 2014 If I had to guess, it's fairy dust palys as well... and yes, they grow like weeds. Kind of the xenia of the zoa/paly world in my opinion... they have wicked fast growth rates. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eaglesnest71405 Posted September 7, 2014 Author Share Posted September 7, 2014 I have two 10 polyp frags of these guys and already have to frag more away from my wife's kryptonights it's only been about 2 or 3 weeks since I fragged them. I guess since they are common nobody would want to swap these guys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
