Clownfish, damsels, blennys, gobys, eels, reef-safe wrasses, anthias...as for the zoos idk.

Zooanthids may suffer but their cousins known as Palythoa would probably do just fine. Zoos unfortunately rarely eat and must get all their nutrients from light (thus making them more light-dependent). Palythoa in general will eat food from the water and bolster their nutrition that way thus leading to higher survivability and growth rates

Ok do you think i will be ok with most other soft corals such as mushrooms etc

depending on the mushroom your talking about, but from what i heard, mushies generally need more lighting than zoo's.

Your actinodiscus mushrooms dont need much light at all. Some ricordea need a bunch but generally shrooms are pretty low light
