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. Begin with gentler exposure and acclimate gradually to avoid sudden light stress, then observe the colony’s response before adjusting placement.

Flow

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

Placement

Place it in lower to middle reef areas. Start in a lower-light location during acclimation, then move only gradually if its placement needs adjustment.

Temperament

Keep it spaced with room to spread. Zoanthids are generally peaceful, but colonies can expand across nearby rockwork and may eventually crowd neighboring corals.

Feeding

Feeding is usually optional. Some colonies accept fine foods, so occasional targeted feeding can be offered if appropriate for the aquarium’s overall nutrient balance.

General Care

Maintain stable reef conditions and make changes gradually. Watch polyp extension and overall appearance after placement or lighting changes. Handle zoanthids carefully, using appropriate eye and skin protection whenever working with the coral.

Give the colony space, stable conditions, and time to settle in.
