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

Use low to moderate lighting, then acclimate gradually to its final intensity. Slow light adjustment helps this zoanthid settle without abrupt changes.

Flow

Provide low to moderate varied flow that keeps the colony clear without continuously blasting the polyps. Adjust flow if polyps remain tightly closed or debris settles.

Placement

Place it in lower to middle reef areas and allow time for gradual lighting acclimation. Secure the frag where it can receive appropriate flow and remain easy to observe.

Temperament

Keep space around the colony as it grows and spreads. Zoanthids are generally peaceful, but expansion can bring them into contact with neighboring corals over time.

Feeding

Feeding is usually optional. Some colonies accept fine foods, but stable reef conditions and suitable light and flow remain the main priorities.

General Care

Maintain stable reef conditions and observe polyp opening, debris buildup, and nearby coral contact. Acclimate lighting gradually after introduction or relocation. Handle zoanthids carefully, using appropriate eye and skin protection whenever working with the frag.

Give it stable conditions, room to spread, and regular observation.
