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 lighting gradually, especially when introducing the coral to a brighter system, and observe its response before making further changes.

Flow

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

Placement

Place it in lower to middle reef areas. Start with a secure location and adjust gradually only if its light exposure or flow needs refinement.

Temperament

Keep reasonable space around the colony as it grows. Zoanthids are generally peaceful, but they can spread onto nearby rockwork and toward neighboring corals.

Feeding

Feeding is usually optional. Some colonies accept fine foods, which can be offered occasionally without making feeding a required part of care.

General Care

Maintain stable reef conditions and make changes gradually. Watch polyp response after placement or adjustments, and handle zoanthids carefully with appropriate eye and skin protection during maintenance or frag work.

A practical soft coral choice for measured, stable reef conditions.
