    Zoa? Whoa!

    Feeding a zoa? IMHO, no

    Others advice will vary however.

    Is there also other livestock, fish, other coral, CUC in the tank?
    How old?
    Moderate light and the water column should suffice if you're also feeding fish, etc.

    I have never directly fed my zoas. They like a more nutrient rich water than SPS but can and will survive and thrive in water that SPS prefer.

    If you have fish when you feed them you're feeding your zoas. You could target feed but not really necessary.
