Does anyone know any similar zoas?

[Treenk]

So I have several zoa frags atm. But the way that the utter chaos lay on each other without really growing stems to fight for their own space is my favorite. Does anyone know any others that grow in a similar fashion?

My whammin watermelons are growing that way.

Nice Zoas. Depends on the overall tank environment and water composition.(Not Recommended)but Decrease the light or vary the flow and you will see a difference in how they stretch or change overall.

Don't have a answer other than the space available at the time they're growing . Lower light will make them elongate.

1st picture fire and ice all flat and spaced out. In background are elongated scrambled eggs.
2nd picture dragon eye, fire and ice(center) all long stemed from lack of space. On right is single dragon eye that is flat. On left is blondes all flat and spread out

Oh so it's not certain types grow differently. It just happens to be that type is staying flat because the light/flow is good for where that type is. Other types need different places to act that way?

Here's a picture of some Sunny D's (a paly) that are at the bottom of the tank in high flow. Note the 3 little Emeralds on fire at the bottom of the plug that don't get a lot of light--still they're flat. I can't think of a paly that doesn't elongate some.
