Couple IDs needed

Hey all first is a zoa, wondering what kind it is.

 

Now a black looking sponge with green hairs growing out

 

your so called 'zoa' looks like a teal paly to me.

 

the zoa in the picture looks like a proto paly to me, kind of invasive and they are the ones that hold the paly toxin.

 

Im a dummy. I meant paly.... soooo this is one of the dangerous ones???

 

well, it has a toxin that can kill you if it is what i think it is. if you try to cut it be sure to wear gloves, and eye protection. Some guy tried boiling rock to kill them and the pallys released their toxin in the water and he had to b ruched to the hospital.

 

ah, just be careful when it's out of water, and your working with it. I also used my safety glasses when working with frags anyhow, but I've had a lot of stuff come shooting at me! /DesktopModules/ActiveForums/themes/_default//emoticons/smile.gif

Here's a quick read on ReefCentral on paly vs proto paly... might find it interesting.
