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. Acclimate the coral gradually to its final intensity to reduce stress and observe its response before making further placement changes.

Flow

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

Placement

Place it in lower to middle reef areas. Start with a secure location and adjust only gradually after it has had time to settle under the aquarium lighting.

Temperament

Allow room for the colony to spread. Zoanthids are generally peaceful, but their growth can encroach on nearby corals, so leave space and monitor neighboring placement.

Feeding

Feeding is usually optional. Some colonies accept fine foods, which can be offered carefully as part of an established reef feeding routine.

General Care

Maintain stable reef conditions and monitor polyp extension, placement, and surrounding growth. Acclimate lighting gradually, and handle zoanthids carefully with appropriate eye and skin protection during mounting, moving, or maintenance.

Give this colony space to settle and monitor its growth over time.
