Let's see your zo collection

Mine has changed dramatically (for the worse I'm sad to say) so I need some time to re-gather the troops. But here's a start while I work on that

Wow! Some beautiful zoos!

Trav, I have some of the ones in your 3rd and 6th pic, and Doni, I have some of the ones in your 2nd pic on your second post.

Here are just a few of my collection, I have about 16 or 17 different colors/types of zoos, they're my favorite coral. Sorry for the pic quality.

Here's a colony I got recently that I think is pretty unusual. The pics a little fuzzy, but the color is accurate.
