A loose trade name. Sellers use it loosely, so trust the photo over the label.
Collector tier: common, reviewed 2026-08.
A zoa with a pale blue to teal mouth set in a wide, bright yellow face, a thin blue to purple band around it, and a green to yellow-green skirt. The yellow is the egg, and on some polyps it runs golden toward orange.
Read the colour of the face. The same layout with a red to orange ring is an Eagle Eye, and an orange ring with a green disc is a Rasta; this one is yellow. One shop's copy says orange ring and purple skirt, but its photographs show the same yellow-faced polyp, so trust the picture over that wording. The yellow washes out under strong white light, so a pale frag may be placement. Grown by many farms under their own prefixes, with no originator named.
Low to middle rock, enough flow to keep detritus off the mat. Scrambled Eggs is beginner to keep at a typical PAR of 75–150 in moderate flow. A typical starting range for this type of coral, not measured on this one.
No verified sales yet. A range publishes once 3 dated, checkable records from 3 different sources exist, priced per polyp and reported as a median, with what shops ask kept separate from what buyers paid. One polyp, so a ten-polyp frag is divided by ten. Listings that do not state the count are dropped rather than assumed. Nothing on this page is for sale.
