Don't worry so much about the names, they do not exist in the international trade world, only in the internet world. I am sure Amphibious can verify this.

Also, don't forget that what is a common name only is common within that circle. Don't believe me, go to Indonesia and ask. There is only three types of zoos available from exporters: small, medium, and large.
That is absolutely correct. Before the Internet there were brown, red, blue, green and orange zoos collected and most of them lost their color under our anemic lighting systems. Some times they wouldn't even open up. They sat there like knobs.
