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. Start with gentler exposure and acclimate lighting gradually to help the coral adjust without sudden changes.

Flow

Use low to moderate, varied flow. Enough movement helps keep the colony clear, while excessively forceful direct flow is best avoided.

Placement

Place it in lower to middle reef areas. Secure the frag where it can receive appropriate light and varied water movement, then allow time to settle after introduction.

Temperament

Plan space for future spread. Zoanthids are generally peaceful, but the colony can expand across nearby rockwork and crowd neighboring corals over time.

Feeding

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

General Care

Maintain stable reef conditions and observe the colony as it adjusts. Make lighting changes gradually, avoid abrupt shifts in flow or placement, and handle zoanthids carefully with appropriate eye and skin protection.

Give it stable conditions and room to expand on its rockwork.
