Zoysia Lawns – Maintenance

Is verticutting a zoysia grass lawn recommended or not? I have an established 25-year-old zoysia lawn that appears to be getting a little thin and greening up very slowly. . . lots of tan grass and lots of thatch. Is aerating recommended?

Also, I have been told not to water zoysia unless drought conditions (no rain for 30 days). True or not true? Finally, what about chemistry and when (and dry or hose fed (weed-and-feed)?
