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. Acclimate gradually to brighter conditions, especially after shipping or when moving the coral within the reef.

Flow

Provide low to moderate varied flow. Gentle, changing movement helps keep the colony clear without subjecting the polyps to constant direct force.

Placement

Place it in lower to middle reef areas. Start with a stable location and adjust only gradually as the colony responds to light and water movement.

Temperament

Expect generally peaceful behavior, but leave room for the colony to spread. Plan its location with nearby corals in mind so expansion does not crowd surrounding space.

Feeding

Feeding is usually optional. Some colonies accept fine foods, which can be offered carefully while maintaining clean, stable reef conditions.

General Care

Maintain stable reef conditions and observe polyp response after placement or adjustments. Acclimate lighting gradually, avoid sudden changes, and handle zoanthids carefully with appropriate eye and skin protection during maintenance or fragging.

Give this zoanthid stable conditions and space to establish its colony.
