All 3 pics are the same frag. First pic is in frag tank under led's. The other 2 pics are under t5s one with flash and one without. Sorry for the crappy phone pics.



They were sold to me as Laser Lemons but they're definitely not that.
Thanks for the help!

If they have a green center, purple rim and an orange skirt, I've seen something called a Oompa Loompas that look similar to what you have posted.

Here's a reference so you can compare.

Thanks. Those are similar to mine but mine are not as deep green inside and kind of have more of a lime green in the center. It's not real defined just kind of fades into the lime green center. The skirt is extremely bright orange

Ok I think it's an Orange Nebula. It looks almost just like the pics on Zoaid.com

I got it from the Reef Farmers booth at the show in Dallas Sat. Steve was working the Reef Raft booth next to it but most of the frags in the Reef Farmers booth were his I think. I don't know about this one for sure.
Most likely they weren't Tyrees corals. Yeah looks like a Reef Raft plug... makes them wild then as they don't really have named zoas besides the pricey chalices etc.

No I don't think they're Reef Raft. They weren't in the RR tank that Steve was working. They were in the Reef Farmers tank and if they weren't Steve's, I think they belonged to the local guy that was working it.

I guess that's possible. All the corals I've seen in Reef Farmers tanks the last couple of CFMs have looked like poop, bleached, etc.

Why is that?? He's ruining his reputation of having nice corals.

I think so to be quite honest. Its just something I've noticed when he's been at shows recently. He's a nice guy and very knowledgeable maybe its more to do with his relocating etc.

Maybe it's because he's been so busy with the Coral Farmers Market Company and organizing CFM's etc his tanks have been getting neglected. Who knows
