Care Level: Beginner to Moderate
Lighting
Provide low to moderate lighting. Begin in gentler light and acclimate gradually before moving it higher if the colony responds well.
Flow
Use low to moderate, varied flow. Gentle movement helps keep the colony clear without subjecting it to a constant direct blast.
Placement
Place it in lower to middle reef areas. Secure the frag where it can receive suitable light and flow, then allow time to adjust.
Temperament
This coral is generally peaceful, but it can spread over nearby rockwork. Leave room around the colony and monitor its expansion near slower-growing neighbors.
Feeding
Feeding is usually optional. Some colonies may accept fine foods, but stable reef conditions remain the main priority.
General Care
Maintain stable reef conditions and observe the colony as it acclimates. Make lighting changes gradually, and handle zoanthids carefully with appropriate eye and skin protection during placement or maintenance.
Allow the colony time to settle before making placement changes.
