ZOAS changing color

[TNT280]

Hey everyone I have a Frag of Utter Chaos I bought the frag it had 3 polyps, it now has about 12 polyps and the color changed. Is this normal? I've had them for about 8 months now.

Check out the before and after photos


Thanks
Tony

you can name it whatever you want... but if it does not stay like that... then you are going to hear it from someone if you decide on selling and it changes back.

zoas morph colors all the time. I have eagle eyes that turned red and blue in some areas... doesn't mean jack as when it spreads again it will still be eagle eyes.

H20, I got these from you , they grow really fast, my favorite zoas, once I upgraded from T5 to LED that's when I noticed they started changing I keep them.in the sand bed in the front of the tank , I would think they get exposed to a lot.if light. If you frag some more let me know I want to buy another frag see if the stay or change. They actually look awesome now...lol

them leds must be doing something different . I know people with MH & T5s that keep them with original color and yeah its also my fav zoa under t5 high light they get the Orange to pop a lot better in low t5 light they not as bright but the polyps get huge
I got a bunch of frags ready for the swap I post a tread soon need to register for swap first . But imo
Getting another frag will most likely turn out the same . Lmk if u want to trade I would love to see if they change back under T5
What kind of leds u keep them under ?
