Given the right conditions, they are kinda like weeds!

Oh,s.........!I have a 15 gallon aquarium and a 10 gallon sump!I should keep an eye on them!!!!!!!

It's either that, or how many people do you know that like zooanthids. You may be able to trade them in at your LFS for store credit. That's always handy!!!

It is always good when stuff(except algae)grows in our tank!!!

I can see some other zoos between them,on yellow-gray color that seem to gain room vrs the red ones!!!!What can I do to keep the red zoos intact?Should I take them one by one out of the zoo colony?

Whatever you do with polyps...be careful when handling. I purchased a few zoos last week and found out about the dangers afterwards. When I first received the shipment; they were tiny... they have since expanded and are finally acclimating to tank conditions. What you may see as growth may be expansion/acclimation instead. There's some good info at this link that may help you...
