those are beautiful johnanddawn...will you tell us some details ie; lighting, feeding, flow, placement etc? i have some of those zoa's and I get good growth but their colors don't pop anymore. I don't know why they have faded.
 
yea cassy, no prob,
standard 125 with a mixed light 1/3 has MH/VHO and 2/3 is just VHO 2 50-50'5 and 2 actinics. the zoas are in the VHO end and i have a clam and SPS's under the MH. filtration is almost nonexsistent, no fancy equipment what-so-ever although i do run carbon. flow is 2 rio 2100 from the sump and 3 MJ1200 on a natural wave timer. position has changes as you will note 180* over the 3 months due to me playing in the tank. the tank itself is almost 15 years old but all these zoas are less then a year. i went from a softy/lps tank to a true mixed garden in the last year and a half and have made a lot of theme changes recently. I only target feed LPS's.
here is a peak under the hood, can't beat the POP of VHO:
