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 gentler exposure and acclimate gradually when introducing the coral to brighter areas.

Flow

Use 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. Begin in a lower-light location, then adjust placement slowly if its response indicates it can tolerate more exposure.

Temperament

Allow room for the colony to spread. Zoanthids are generally peaceful, but their growth can encroach on nearby corals if placement is not planned with space in mind.

Feeding

Feeding is usually optional. Some colonies accept fine foods, so occasional targeted offerings may be used if desired.

General Care

Maintain stable reef conditions and observe polyp opening after introduction or changes in placement. Acclimate lighting gradually, and handle zoanthids carefully with appropriate eye and skin protection during mounting, moving, or maintenance.

Give this colony space to expand and monitor neighboring corals over time.
