They all look great!
One of the coolest things about Zoa's are the names that people have come up with for them. If I find a new species, I'm gonna call it "4th dimensional alien zombie dragon pupils"

Matthew, I did an extensive search via Google Scholar a few months ago and I was unable to find any documented cases in the medical literature of someone who was actually harmed by zoanthids or palytoxin from aquarium keeping.

As long as you're reasonably careful, it's fine. Tens of thousands of reefers keep them with no problems. It's just the one or two bad stories that you hear about.

the only problems i ever heard of with zoas was getting squirted in the eye while fragging them so just a cheapo pair of safety glasses and you should have no worries . i do wear gloves whenever i handle any coral just to be on the safe side though.
