Zoas

What can I do to make my zoas more vibrant?

Vibrance comes from lighting and water conditions. Reef fuel can help feed your corals (there are others) but UV, antics will make your colors pop. To much and they will fade, to little and they wont grow etc. one of the best investments in your fank is a quality lighting setup and understanding it's best settings for your tank.

I have radion lighting now. I plan on doing a massive tank upgrade too 1 or 2 thousand gallons and upgrading with more of the new radions but I'm wondering in terms of water quality for zoas. I'm used to keeping SPS and im not that familiar with the quality requirements of softies.

IME, they prefer somewhat "dirtier" water - and will grow under just about any lighting you have.

Try the radiant color graph.

How long have you had them? They do take time to adjust and color up.

Blues for color. Whites for growth. Gotta find that happy medium.
