Hi everyone I bought this zoa last week and it took some time before it even opened but now even when it's open only a handful of polyps have any color any advice to maximize their potential would be much appreciated thank you!

they show there colors under actinic blue mainly, but if nitrates and phosphates are too low, it keeps corals from showing their color

jusdging by the rock in your background your tank is younfg

So as nitrates and phosphates build will color start to develop?

Hi there! You definitely have two different zoas going on there . Both look very healthy and happy. The very colorful ones are Green Bay Packers and the others aren’t ID-able. If you want to help the brown ones gain more color, you can try moving them (slowly!) to higher light

i wouldnt rely on it. lighting is best way to make them pop. i just know super low nutrient takes 0 nitrates etc corals lose color
