Hey all, anyone recognize this? Is it a zoa or paly, and what kind if you know? (The top one with four heads)

Although if you know the bottom one with two heads as well, that's a plus.

Thanks!

These are pally's, not zoa's. The top 4 look like purple people eaters, and the bottom 2 look like nuclear green pally's. Be careful with your placement, they are "weed" corals IMO, they will quickly grow and cover any rock they are on.

top is Zoanthus cf. gigantus or sansibaricus (would be rather large polyps dor sansibaricus); bottom are Palythoa cf. mutuki. Right are Zoanthus sansibaricus
