They are zoas. Put them in the sand to acclimate them for a week or two. Figure out during that time where you want them and then move them. They will grow and spread and many of us make “zoa gardens” with a whole host of mixed colors. These are beautiful and are amongst the easiest soft corals to keep and grow. You don’t need to feed them but they appreciate food and will grow faster if they are fed once in a while. Inspect them for pests for sure. There are ones that will go after them specifically and generally like other corals. For that final placement, mine mostly like moderate light and moderate flow. I hope this helps.
 
Isolate the Bozo. It’s one of the fastest growing / spreading zoas I’ve encountered. Spread off an isolated rock, across sand, up a frag stand, and intertwined in the branches of a small hammer colony. This took less than 4 months

I know others with it that are reporting faster growth than most zoas also.

Do you just frag them then?

They grew up a 3d printed frag stand and then up the hammer trunk. I found it easy to peel them off. You can glue them to blank plugs and make new frags

I will keep an eye out, thanks for the heads up
 
All good notes on the ck bozo bdays/lc anti matter.

The Chong bongs a venerable strain that’s been around awhile. They were hard to find for awhile but have made a come back. They look awesome as a colony. Not a particularly fast grower. You did good on that, it’s easily a $45 frag on its own.

great, thanks!
 
Bozo Bday are probably one of the fastest growing zoa's,as pretty as they are and can be..I will NEVER have a single polyp in any tank ever again.

Chongs Bong's can be hit or miss honestly. They are an OG strain for sure and gorgeous when colored up.
