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 moving the coral into a brighter system, and observe its response before adjusting placement.

Flow

Provide low to moderate varied flow. Aim for enough movement to keep the colony clear without subjecting it to a constant, forceful stream.

Placement

Place it in lower to middle reef areas. Start with a secure location that matches its initial light exposure, then make gradual adjustments only if needed.

Temperament

Expect generally peaceful behavior, but allow room for the colony to spread. Give neighboring corals space and monitor its footprint as it establishes on surrounding rockwork.

Feeding

Feeding is usually optional. Some colonies accept fine foods, which may be offered as part of a regular reef-feeding routine.

General Care

Maintain stable reef conditions and make changes gradually. Observe the colony after introduction, particularly during light acclimation. Handle zoanthids carefully, using appropriate eye and skin protection when moving, securing, or maintaining the coral.

A practical soft-coral choice for a carefully maintained reef aquarium.
