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 gradually to avoid sudden changes in light intensity.

Flow

Use low to moderate, varied flow. Enough movement helps keep debris from settling while allowing the polyps to remain comfortably open.

Placement

Place it in lower to middle reef areas. Secure the specimen where its spreading habit can be monitored, then adjust placement slowly during light acclimation.

Temperament

It is generally peaceful, but it can spread across nearby rockwork. Leave room around the colony and monitor neighboring corals as it expands.

Feeding

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

General Care

Maintain stable reef conditions and observe polyp extension and surrounding space regularly. Acclimate lighting gradually, and handle zoanthids carefully with appropriate eye and skin protection during placement or maintenance.

A straightforward soft coral option for a carefully maintained reef aquarium.
