I've kept zoos in my SPS main tank, but many dislike my high lighting. I've got a small biocube that is 14g, with 48W of PC lighting in it-24W of 10K and 24W of actinic. Is this too little for good zoo growth and color? Should I get a small hang on MH fixture of 70W or 150W? Any advice from zoo keepers would be appreciated. Thanks.

I like the way my zoanthids look under my 250 watt 14k Hamilton. I also have 2x55watt pc actinic.
I moved a couple frags from this to a tank that had 161watts of pc lighting and they really lost alot of color.
So you know what I'd recommend.:)
