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

Provide low to moderate lighting. Start with gentle exposure and acclimate lighting gradually, watching the colony’s response before moving it into brighter areas.

Flow

Use low to moderate varied flow. Enough movement helps keep the colony clear of detritus, while overly forceful direct flow should be avoided.

Placement

Place it in lower to middle reef areas. Begin in a lower-light location during acclimation, then adjust placement gradually if its response indicates a different position is needed.

Temperament

Generally peaceful, but allow room for it to spread across nearby surfaces. Plan its location with neighboring corals in mind so expansion does not create unwanted contact.

Feeding

Feeding is usually optional. Some colonies accept fine foods, which can be offered occasionally without relying on feeding as a requirement.

General Care

Maintain stable reef conditions and observe the colony during acclimation and after placement changes. Gradual lighting adjustments are important. Handle zoanthids carefully, using appropriate eye and skin protection whenever working in the aquarium.

Give it space to spread and keep its conditions stable.
