    Rather new to the hobby but am interrested in gettin started in fragging. Im wondering if I could eventually cover a rock with Zoas by spacing individual polyps a couple inches apart. Would they eventually blanket the surface in polyps? Thanks guys!

    Yes with proper lighting, flow and water parameters. Flow should be around 15x tank volume per hour and nitrates at 5ppm or below. They do not need direct flow but like it nearby.

    They will blanket the rock eventually anyways, you don't need to space them out.
