Interesting...they certainly do resemble some of the Wham'n Watermelon shots on zoaid.com. Gotta luv when free Zoa's show up on a rock!!
 
Looking at zoaid.com, they do look like Wham'n Watermelon :)

My eagle eyes look like the ones in post #1971

In zoaid, the Eagle Eye pictures look more like Wham'n Watermelon than Eagle Eyes...
 
IMO, whammin watermelons and eagle eyes are pretty much the same.
Someone a while back must have decided his eagle eyes looked just a little bit better than others and decided to rename them whammin watermelons. And now when you come accross a EE/WW that look really nice, they are WW and the duller ones EE.
The color pattern and colors are pretty much the same.

The first time I came across the WW name a person in the area was selling them as a new zoanthid and wanted a small fortune for them. So it just seemed like a money thing to me.


But yeah, they are my favorite and one of my very first multi-colored zoanthid.




just my .02 worth :)
 
OR the newer ones have near lost there purple center and are called "Tangerines"
Heres mine still an actual EE morph.
but yes finn knows zoo's especially EE and he's right.
