Got this frag with three(?) different colored zoas growing on it. I notice that the heads on most of them are super small, and a lot of them open and close and open and close throughout the day. I did some research on that and saw that zoas may do that while still new as they adjust and get used to the tank. My question is, will the presence of multiple colors pose any issues with time? Are they too crowded? Thanks!

nope, no issues! they'll grow however they feel comfortable, don't worry about crowding. make sure they are getting plenty of flow.
 
Multiples are fine, however, the pally will likely grow and spread faster than the zoa's, leaving the zoa's with no space to grow

There are a few amphipods that hide out in that one specific frag’s nooks and crannies and only come out at night (see recent post) will they be any bother to the zoa? Thanks!

nope, pods are friends. They may temporarily irritate polyps they walk over, but cause no meaningful harm.
