xenia and zoa lighting needs

What is more light demanding, a pulsing xenia, or a zoa?

Both can live in 'lower' lighting conditions (ie: PC lighting), but zoa colours will change. If you want them to stay nice & bright they need more intense lighting.

was trying to figure out whether I could get away with keeping them at the lower part of the tank, sounds like I can

I'd run the zoa a little higher in the tank and keep 8.3+Ph for Zenia.
