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 gradually to your aquarium lighting, then observe polyp response before making further adjustments.

Flow

Use low to moderate, varied water flow. Gentle changing movement helps keep the colony clear without concentrating constant direct flow on the polyps.

Placement

Place it in lower to middle reef areas. Start with a secure location and adjust gradually after lighting acclimation if the colony’s response suggests a change is needed.

Temperament

Keep room for spreading. Zoanthids are generally peaceful, but this coral can expand over nearby surfaces and may eventually crowd neighboring corals.

Feeding

Feeding is usually optional. Some colonies accept fine foods, which can be offered carefully as part of regular reef maintenance.

General Care

Maintain stable reef conditions and watch for changes in polyp opening or appearance. Acclimate lighting gradually, and handle zoanthids carefully with appropriate eye and skin protection during placement, maintenance, or frag work.

Give it stable conditions and space to spread across its chosen surface.
