Another believer in fish poop feeding of corals here. I never fed my zoas, and they grow like stink!

I've used vitamin c if that's what your referring to for a long time , I don't anymore and theres no real noticeable difference that I can see.

If you need help with growth or colors maybe a little about your system and what your trying to achieve will help

Some zoanthids won't eat foods , well Not the ones you'll offer anyways as they are too large , some larger species like zoanthus gigantus or palythoas species will take meaty foods like mysis.

Besides photosynthesis , what they need is found in the water column , adding food won't hurt though as long as you keep the exporting of nutrients at bay with the importing of foods.remember the build up of too much foods is often a slow process that doesn't get noticed til agae takes hold which is way to late.
