You have amazing growth. Inspiring !!
Hounestly, I have been keeping zoanthids and palys for about 6 years now and i have never in my life seen a zoanthid eat anything. I do notice palys eating when small pellets fall on them and i have feed the large red palys in my tank on occasion. I feed the fish mostly NLS pellets and a green veggie flake. About every second day I will add a very small pinch of coral frenzy into the display tank to feed the sps corals and I guess some of the zoas and palys might absorb some of it. zoanthids in my tank literally grow daily I barely have any rock left uncovered. I think decent water quality and lighting helps but also mounting them in area where they are likely to spread and not touching them helps a lot. I also find mounting them on smooth rock or something that allows them to spread like lava because they bud off of each other.
