Default Feeding Zoa's

I'm a little confused. I've read one article that says zoa's dont need food only light. Another said to feed meaty bits, one article says they dont need a lot of light another says they do... Got a great looking colony of zoas a few days ago, they are open and look great, How do I keep them that way? They are about 1/2 way up the tank, medium water flow, T-5 lights.... Should I 'baste' them with some brine shrimp? I have no fish in the tank, only cuc so no food going into the tank...

Nah, they will be fine without food. If you REALLY want to feed them, add a little bit of phytoplankton.

Good to know, I have some bioplankton I've been adding to the tank I'll leave it at that. Thanks
