Wish I could grow them, they always seem to just fade away on me. Now paly's are a different story. I can't make them stop.
 
Anything north of $100 for a XYZ is overrated.
Every frag in my last tank was <100$ (gold torch came close)

brass tacks.....
Some zoas are absolutely beautiful.............
if you have a garden on your rocks and if ever you wish to get rid of said zoas good luck, they are like weeds once established
 
So long as mine don’t melt, I love these.

I have some zoas that are great and others that are weeds that I need to figure out how best to control without harming the corals the zoas are trying to over run

The repeating patterns give me the hibbie jibbies. I'm sure thats some kind of phobia. Not everything with similar patterns do but maybe the pictures I see of zoas are too close up. Plus the paly toxin part is scary. Im working in the tank often managing my naughty urchin. But the colors available are awesome.
 
My Hippo Tang doesn’t think so. He eats them like I eat ice cream.
