I bought zoanthus once 1.5 months ago and on the die was a bonus acropora red planet).
I did not have SPS before, I will tell you right away.
After a few days I had to do a blackout for 3 days against dinos (successfully)
After that, I did not see during the day, and then I thought that she just died (probably because of stress like a difference in light, in general conditions).
But last night I noticed that some part of the polyps or a couple of polyps connected by tissue are still alive, and the skeleton for a month has already managed to turn green because of microalgae.
I began to suspect that it is alive a couple of days ago, because when you look at it during the day - you can see that the red color is preserved in some places-holes in the skeleton, where there should have been polyps (which could indicate surviving polyps).
Thats a photo before and now at night.
Perhaps the loss of tissue was also affected by that rather large wound over there after it was broken off from the main individual.
