I have this colony of 3 varieties. I know the orang and brown are gorilla nipples but what are the other two?

Thanks LoudProudNPunk,
Do you see much growth on yours? I hardly see any on mine. I have had them for 5 month and maybe saw a few new polyps the whole time!

mine have grown from about 20 polyps to 25-30 in maybe 2 months time. They seem to like the bottom of my tank more. I have a 400 watt metal halide. goodluck!

Not much growth on mine ! I only have 48 watts ,thats probably the reason. My yellow polyps have doubled in two months from 22 to 45 but i do not think they are considered zoanthids.

i have had good luck with my palys as well, red/green ones. So many more i wouldnt know the orginal number. i had 5 or so on a decent sized rock now they cover it.
i think zoas can thrive under your lighting as well, try some different spots maybe.
