Quick Care Summary

• Lighting: Low to moderate lighting
• Flow: Low to moderate varied flow
• Placement: Lower to middle reef areas
• Temperament: Generally peaceful but can spread
• Care Level: Beginner to Moderate

Lighting

Provide low to moderate lighting, then acclimate gradually to its final intensity. Slow adjustment helps the colony settle without abrupt changes in exposure.

Flow

Use low to moderate varied flow. Gentle, changing movement helps keep the colony clear while avoiding constant force directly on the polyps.

Placement

Place it in lower to middle reef areas. Start with a stable spot and adjust only gradually after observing how it responds to lighting and water movement.

Temperament

Keep it spaced with future spread in mind. Zoanthids are generally peaceful, but the colony can expand across nearby rockwork and encroach on neighboring corals.

Feeding

Feeding is usually optional. Some colonies accept fine foods, but stable reef conditions remain the primary foundation for routine care.

General Care

Maintain stable reef conditions and observe the colony as it acclimates. Make lighting changes gradually, and handle zoanthids carefully with appropriate eye and skin protection during fragging, moving, or maintenance.

Allow room for expansion and make changes slowly as it settles.
