How hard are zoanthids?

I'm just starting out an 8 gallon nano cube with a built-in overflow and filter. I also just bought a kessil 160 LED light to go over it. For water I am just buying one gallon jugs of distilled water from the grocery store. So my main question, are zoanthids a hard coral to take care of and grow? How bright should I keep the light? and how strong should the water flow be? Any provided ideas and tips will be appreciated :)
 
This is what my tank looks like right now with some pukani rock that I have used., I have to fish or coral in it yet. What could be the best position for zoas in the little tank? And what kind of zoas are a good zoanthid that do well in small tanks? what should I do to make them happy?

They are among the easier ones to keep. Flow varies from one to the next, but they are not as sensitive to flow as other corals like Hammers and such. I think that you can give them a try once you cycle properly and can keep everything in check. Water changes on your size tank will be key.
 
Zoas are generally easy to keep; although, few of them are harder. As far as flow, i would say medium to low depending on what type of zoas.
