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 to your aquarium lighting, 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 subjecting the polyps to a constant direct blast.

Placement

Place it in lower to middle reef areas. Start with a gradual lighting acclimation period and choose a stable surface with room for the colony to expand.

Temperament

Keep it with generally peaceful neighbors, while allowing space for spreading. Monitor nearby corals over time and manage its footprint if the colony begins growing into their area.

Feeding

Feeding is usually optional. Some colonies accept fine foods, which can be offered occasionally if appropriate for the aquarium’s overall feeding routine.

General Care

Maintain stable reef conditions and observe the polyps regularly for changes in extension or placement response. Handle zoanthids carefully, using appropriate eye and skin protection during fragging, moving, or other direct contact.

Allow room to spread and make changes gradually as the colony settles in.
