Zoanthids are hardy, fast-growing soft corals that spread into a carpet of small polyps, and collecting different named varieties is half the fun.
Care: Beginner friendly. Low to moderate light and moderate flow. Zoanthids can contain palytoxin, so wear gloves and eye protection when handling or fragging, and wash up afterward.

Notes from the King:
"Zoas are how a lot of us got hooked. Put them mid-tank with medium flow and they'll keep spreading. I like spot-feeding a little Reef-Roids now and then, but honestly they mostly just need stable water."
