What are some zoas or palys that do well in high light. My tank is relatively shallow and i want to keep sps on top of the rocks, but that will expose the zoas, to some high par ratings, like 200 maybe. Can many types to well at that par if acclimated or are some type inherently more likely to thrive at a high par level?

sorry for the newbie question. my research has kinda lead me two both of these answers.

Zoas are pretty adaptable and most any should do fine if acclimated properly. Start them at the bottom and move up

That's what I like to here. I kinda love it when they carpet the sand anyways so maybe I will just adjust the light. Do all zoas carpet the sand I used to have some dark red ones that grew great on the sand, but i had some green and orange ones that didn't grow as well on the sand bed.

I think its dependent on the morph. My sunrise sakuras go all over the place, but for whatever reason my utter chaos wont really spread on sand at all.

UFO's, I grow them next to my SPS and they only look awesome under higher light. If I put them next to where I grow my zoas they look ok but aren't bright and crisp. The only true high light zoa I've ever come across.
