What are some colorful fast-growing zoanthids? What are some that are known for being difficult/melt easily for little reason?

fast growing
eagle eyes
rastas
sunny ds
yellow brick roads
fruit loops
There's many many more but in reality every tank is different. I have friends that grow certain zoas like weeds when in my tank i might get 1 or 2 a month in their tank they get like 10 a month.

Melters
Bloodshots
Hallucinations
Nightmares
or any expensive zoa lol

Most of my zoas are grown from smaller frags. I buy them mostly in coral shows.

ok,,so whats your protocal in raising your zoas consistently ?
I notice that your tank has the same one level that all your frags sit on..So lighting is very simliar across the whole tank.
How do you raise/grow that many varieties all in one tank is a super big feat,,with all the difference in lighting,nutrients and flow that all these different varieties need and like?
Also, all these zoas in one tank together too is super hard..many skilled people have failed in keeping certain zoas all and happy but whats your recipe water param wise,nutrient levels,lighting,dosing and any trade secret ?
