[miranda60]

Okay this is a pic of my tank... i have ordered several zoa's and paly's in the states and they will arrive on wednesday.. where is the best place to put
them conserning flow and lightning on flowpump (jeboa wp40 (13000l/h) hangs on the left

lighting : 4 x T5 39 w 1 x Blue ledbar 18 w and 1 x ledbar white (leds in the middle)

the species i have ordered are... armour of god ; firestarter (red); shitznits ; blue hornet;
psychodelics; Martion invation; killerclowns and ofcourse rasta zoa

I would start them all from the bottom of the tank. Based on how they react at the bottom will determine where they get placed. Some zoas can get acclimated to higher intensity of light slowly but some zoas from my experience will not tolerate such intensities no matter how slow the acclimation. Just observe for a few weeks. If they reach for light, they go up in the tank. If they continue to flatten out and hug their creep as hard as possible, they should stay at the bottom or shady areas. Even the same morphs may have different light intensity tolerances. I have two different frags of blue hornets, from different people, one prefers very high lighting while one will not tolerate anything outside of shaded areas.
