OMG Elite Reef has Candy Apple Orange Zoas

#1
I just scored legit CAO from Elite Reef. I cannot believe the quality of stuff that elite gets in. These babies were on zoanthids.com for 180 a polyp and I paid 50 at elite. I know my zoas and these are the real deal. Once again Elite showing why they are the top dog around here. THey have a few more frags of them too for anyone else who wants these. Pics to come as soon as tehy open in my tank. here is a comparison to my CAR

Lol that do it for ya Zoalander? Incredible aren't they? I should have bought them all and sold em on r2r. They are so rare right now people are paying a **** ton to get them in high priced packs.

Triple t, picked one up last night. Just a nice CAR. Looks exactly like a colony I already have right next to it in my frag tank. :(

Looks like a lot of the CAR floating around here, I always thought of the CAR as more of an Orange anyway, I haven't seen a true red color in a CAR before..... $180 a polyp online? Someone is smoking crack lol

see I've had some CAR that on the same frag look like both of those depending on the light they get, I will post a pic here when the lights come on tomorrow and I can shoot one. Honestly a lot of people say the Bowsers are just morphed CAR and so I dunno what to think really!

Yeah.... Cao are really expensive and seem to be almost mythical. Everyone who describes what it is that makes them a cao says something different. Here is the thing though. I've been hunting for cao for a while and almost had some on r2r that had a legit lineage. These look identical to what I almost bought for 120$ per polyp. Idk. Fraking Awesome zoa no matter what.
