Maybe you could try not giving away most of them to me I placed them mid height in the tank. They receive fairly high flow at times and MH light. The color is good but growth is rather slow.

I have recently bought a couple of hundred dollars worth of zoanthids from Canadian Reef. I have noticed that the growth rate on some is much higher than others. As a matter of fact I had to go out and buy some rubble today so that I could give some of the zoos something to grow onto. Now it must be said that the ones you pictured are not in my collection , so I can't really say anything about them.

Em, as far as I know these guys are slower growing ones. Mine have grown 3-4 more polyps since I got them but I was told that they grew pretty slowly in Troys tank.

Mine went from 3 to 10 polyps in about a month, but after moving them to my frag tank, they stopped growing. I just put them back in the main tank today, so maybe they'll grow again!!

Showoff! Everything grows disgustingly fast in your tank
