Zoa/Paly Spotlight: Utter Chaos

Dragging up an old thread here, but I finally got my hands on a frag of these last weekend. They are so bright it makes my other zoas look boring.
 
I bought this frag 3 weeks ago with one head, it now has four total.

My utter Chaos were doing amazing! Went from 1p to 4p almost over night. Suddenly the original head has shriveled up tremendously and growth has slowed. I have it next to other zoa's that are flourishing and for some reason it's the only one that looks terrible. Any suggestions?
 
Here is mine... thanks to a member across the nation...

Crazy how much differentiation there are with the clump of white in the middle. Specs or pool...

Utters are the only ZOA I let spread where ever in my tank. My favorite colors

Mine likes high par, the closer to the light the more they grow

Low flow n low light?
You’ll find utter chaos adapt to almost any conditions and then will morph accordingly. Best practice is to acclimate them in lower light but once settled they can go anywhere.
