Hey! Thank you! Is there a specific name? I will be honest, I was told to be careful with them when given them as they can produce toxin so I try to never touch them, which is the rule for almost all my Coral. I place and leave. Thank you again!
I’ve only heard them referred to as green palythoa. I believe they grow well and are easy to care for. You might want to keep them and your zoas on a rock island so they don’t take over your rock scape. Here is my island.

Thank you! That looks awesome! So this is a planned scape at the top of the peak of my rocks with the paly and zoa, I want them to take over the top rock. They are actually transplants from my original colony which is on a nice rock on the sandbed as you mentioned. It was one of my first Corals, off a $5 plug and is now a softball sized colony in the front of my display (pic 1)

They will definitely cover the top of your rock, can’t wait to see it in a year!
