Zoa Gardens- Let's see yours!!!

I have a question about these 'zoanthid gardens'...don't they all just grow into each other and then the most dominant zoanthid will take over and kill all the rest leaving you with ONE type? A buddy of mine had a 125 with big colonies of zoanthids and that's what happened to him...he ended up with just brown ones. They 'killed' off all of his colorful zoo's. ??

"Brown ones" seem more invasive than other colored zoas. IME most colorful zoas just grow next to each other.

Recently swapped from a daylight spectrum to a more actinic spectrum (As I saw an interesting post on reefcentral). I'm very happy with the results, in addition with dosing Vit C I have seen increased growth and color.
