I have a goni that hates flow, and the only real low flow zone in my tank is behind zoas, so can zoas and gonis ever so slightly touch each other?
Or will it end in me looking at a skeleton
 
I have no experience with the stated question, but I do know both have a toxin they can release and not sure what their threshold for doing so is. It may just be better to have one unhappy coral. If you do decide to do it without anyone else chiming in I would definitely suggest running carbon to help mitigate anything they toxins they might throw out.

The lime green center right middle of the zoa garden is a goni short tinticle
 
My guess and its just that a guess is that goni have a potent enough sting to ward off zoas, so the goni would have a "protected reach" area around it. The only thing the zoas would do is if not affected by goni sting is overgrow the goni.
