Rubbery zoanthid (Palythoa tuberculosa) in home aquaria?

[geddavis]

I was wondering if anyone keeps rubbery zoas in their tank. I recently went diving in Hawaii and saw many colony’s. Some of them look very cool almost like a weird favia that can open up into a zoa polyp. Does anyone know where you could buy one of these?
