This is a WYSIWYG coral, meaning the coral shown in the photo is the exact piece you will receive.

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. Acclimate lighting gradually, then observe polyp response and adjust placement only as needed.

Flow

Use low to moderate varied flow. Gentle, changing movement helps keep the colony clear without directing a harsh stream at the polyps.

Placement

Start in lower to middle reef areas. Secure the plug where it can receive suitable light and varied flow, then allow time to acclimate.

Temperament

Zoanthids are generally peaceful, but they can spread across nearby surfaces. Leave room around the plug and monitor neighboring corals as the colony expands.

Feeding

Feeding is usually optional. Some colonies may accept fine foods, but stable reef conditions remain the main priority.

General Care

Maintain stable reef conditions and make changes gradually. Watch for normal polyp extension and keep the plug free of accumulating debris. Handle zoanthids carefully, using appropriate eye and skin protection during placement, maintenance, or fragging.

Allow the plug to settle before making placement or flow adjustments.
