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 gradually when introducing the coral or changing its position to help it adjust without abrupt light exposure.

Flow

Use low to moderate, varied flow. Gentle changing movement helps keep the colony clear while avoiding an overly forceful, constant blast.

Placement

Place it in lower to middle reef areas. Start with a stable location and adjust only gradually if its response suggests a different position is needed.

Temperament

Allow room for spread. Zoanthids are generally peaceful, but colonies can expand across nearby rockwork and may eventually encroach on neighboring corals.

Feeding

Feeding is usually optional. Some colonies accept fine foods, which can be offered occasionally as part of regular reef feeding.

General Care

Maintain stable reef conditions and observe the colony during acclimation. Make lighting or placement changes slowly, and handle zoanthids carefully with appropriate eye and skin protection during maintenance.

Plan its placement with future colony spread in mind.
