Blastos are pretty hard to find, then when you do find them they are pretty expensive. nice finds though all i can find is the red with the green middle

Let mine grow out some more to where I think I can get you a good frag without causing too much damage. I am sure we can work out a trade for some of the zoanthids you have.

nice blastos. a friend of mine collects blastos, acans, and montis, and has quite the collection. one of my favorite blastos that he has is a deep purple center with red ring - truly stunning!

here is my blastos not a very good pic. I also have some neon green ones I am nursing back to health as I bought them at the LFS at a steal and thought I would give them a whirl so far so good

Solid red blasto with green mouth.

I found the name of those blastos as they look the same as mine and yours

Thanks Johnett.
Since posting that pic it has developed many more heads.
Some of my blastos have developed what look like inflated bags which i initally thought was some disease.These "bags"grow and heads of the blasto start appearing over it.The bag then deflates and the heads of the blastos drop onto neighbouring rocks and attach,growing into a new colony.How cool is that.
