I’ve been looking at some zoas but all the pics I’ve seen online have been mostly under blue lighting or actinics, and yes they look awesome but I don’t have my tank under blues the whole time.

So can you guys suggest any zoas that will still look nice and colourful under mixed white lighting, I appreciate that there may not be many..... but most of the ones I’ve seen in person only look good under blues otherwise they’re just brown and dull.

So far I’ve only seen radioactive dragon eyes and lunars as the ones that look good under normal lighting, not just blues.
 
Most zoas are nice under white and blue. Whites only is not very good for any coral.

JPS you are always a colorful guy! Great answer.

I think the Magicians and oompa loompa's look pretty good with a little white.

Someone on R2R suggested (may have been Salty) to set the blues where you want them and then add white until it pleases you and retains the colors. I think that is a great idea and use that in my attempt at a beginning zoa\paly garden - sorry I can't get a good pic with my phone.

It pales in comparison to JPS' picture above.
 
JPS, what are the green zoas with the purple mouths that are beside the blue hornets in your picture?

I agree, I should have been clearer. I have whites and blues not just whites, it’s an AI Prime.

Is that a shot of your zoas, there are quite a few in there I like :D
