From my experiences, they are collected in shallow reefs. But i've heard they occur in deeper water also. I think they will grow wherever they settle. Not sure if this helps but even people who collect them aren't completely sure.
Zoas are collected just about everywhere.
Vietnam has larger polyped super bright watermelons, GBPs, RDE's, and plenty of way more unique ones.
Carribean has some unique zoas that we dont commonly see in the trade, but you can check them out at coral morphologics site.
Japan exports Zoas
Islands all over Indonesia export nice zoas, Soloman, Fiji, Tonga. Zoas come from just abut everywhere, but as you import from each of these places, you see that each place has a fairly unique structure, at least to some degree.
