Zoas do not need any additional suppliments other then whats found in normal water changes to thrive.
A mature tank that is well lit and has plenty of flow is also needed. Suppliments are not needed.

actually your in the wrong forum, but since youre already here; they can be fed a coulple of ways.
Turkey injector/syringe with 15-20 mL or so of water and baby brine shrimp or disolved Cyclop-eeze.
you will need to stop the flow or drill a small hole in the bottom of a clear plastic cup and place it over the area being fed for appx. 10 minutes.

I wouldnt bother adding food just for zoas. Adding food like that will just raise your wastes. Mine get plenty of food when I feed my fish Rod's Food or any meaty food.
My zoa's and other corals thrive and reproduce without special attention.

Move to this from the chemistry forum. Should be more people here who can help.
