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 the frag under gentler exposure, then acclimate it gradually to its final lighting position while watching its response.

Flow

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

Placement

Place it in lower to middle reef areas. Secure the frag where it can receive suitable light and varied flow, then avoid frequent moves during acclimation.

Temperament

Keep it 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, which can be offered carefully without relying on feeding as a requirement.

General Care

Maintain stable reef conditions and make lighting changes gradually. Observe polyp extension and overall condition after introduction, and adjust placement only when needed. Handle zoanthids carefully, using appropriate eye and skin protection during fragging or repositioning.

Give this frag a stable spot and allow time for gradual adjustment.
