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 it gradually when introducing it to brighter conditions, then watch polyp response and adjust placement as needed.

Flow

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

Placement

Place it in lower to middle reef areas. Start with a stable mounting location and allow time to adjust before moving it for light or flow changes.

Temperament

Keep room for the colony to spread. Zoanthids are generally peaceful, but their growth can encroach on nearby corals if spacing is not planned.

Feeding

Feeding is usually optional. Some colonies may accept fine foods, but stable reef conditions and appropriate lighting remain the primary routine.

General Care

Maintain stable reef conditions and observe the colony during acclimation and after adjustments. Handle zoanthids carefully, using appropriate eye and skin protection when moving, mounting, or maintaining the coral.

Give it stable conditions, measured adjustments, and space to expand.
