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. Start with gentler exposure and acclimate gradually to avoid stressing the coral as it adjusts to your system.

Flow

Provide low to moderate, varied flow. Gentle movement helps keep the colony clear without continually blasting the polyps from one direction.

Placement

Place it in lower to middle reef areas. Begin in a lower-light location, then adjust placement gradually based on polyp extension and overall response.

Temperament

Allow room for it to spread. Zoanthids are generally peaceful, but colonies can expand across nearby rockwork and may crowd neighboring corals over time.

Feeding

Feeding is usually optional. Some colonies accept fine foods, so occasional targeted feeding can be offered if desired without making it a requirement.

General Care

Maintain stable reef conditions and observe the colony as it settles in. Make lighting changes slowly, and use appropriate eye and skin protection when handling zoanthids or working near the specimen.
