I'm new at this. I've seen multiple photos of both but cannot find a difference by that alone. How do Zoas and Palys differ?

I have an article coming out in the summer issue of the reefs.com magazine addressing this.

In short, they are almost all zoas.

Palys have sand in their outer tissue layer, zoas do not.
