Care Level: Beginner to Moderate
Lighting
Provide low to moderate lighting. Acclimate it gradually to your aquarium lighting, then observe polyp response before changing its position.
Flow
Use low to moderate, varied water flow. Gentle changing flow helps keep the colony clear without subjecting its polyps to constant direct force.
Placement
Place it in lower to middle reef areas. Start with a secure position and adjust gradually only if its response suggests a different location is needed.
Temperament
It is generally peaceful, but leave room for it to spread over time. Plan neighboring corals and available rockwork with its expanding coverage in mind.
Feeding
Feeding is usually optional. Some colonies accept fine foods, which can be offered selectively without making target feeding a required routine.
General Care
Maintain stable reef conditions and make lighting changes gradually. Observe the colony regularly for its response to placement and flow, and handle zoanthids carefully with appropriate eye and skin protection.
Allow space for spread and make changes gradually for consistent care.
