They have been known to....PC's should be just fine...well..I mean you would get less then optimal results with 192watts on a 300 gallon...But lights to match the tank I think they would be okay..

agreed, zoos can do wonderful under PCs and are quite possibly the most amazing coral out there with its thousands of different morphs!
i love them and they have become my curse(must have all...must..) they are very easy to take care of

hey puffer32, how is the flame angel with your polyps?
kingfish8302, lots of places sell them online, but i've gotten the best deals at lfs. I travel a good bit so on my way home i stop where i can, and i look for one or two polyps in the substrate and i buy it for a dollar a polyp or less. then superglue it to a rock and watch it grow. i've actually done this and sold them to my local lfs to buy other stuff.

Zoanthids are amazing, and they should do perfectly fine with the lights you have, I have the same amount of PC lighting on my 65 gal tank and all my zoos are growing fine and dandy.
One piece of advice I have is Don't buy them for their name, most places will jack up the price if they give them a fancy name, instead buy them for how them look.

Thanks. No i look at the pics of them all. The color are just of this world that choose. If there is no pic then i move on. I going to my lfs and while i'm there picking up a order i'm going to ask if they can get of this order for me.

The pics you are seeing might be under acentic lighting and will make them look more colorful like this
