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 it gradually to its final intensity to help the colony adjust without abrupt changes.

Flow

Use low to moderate, varied water flow. Gentle changing movement helps keep the colony clear while avoiding constant force directly on the polyps.

Placement

Place it in lower to middle reef areas. Start with a secure position and adjust only after it has had time to respond to the available light and flow.

Temperament

Plan room for it to spread. Zoanthids are generally peaceful, but the colony can expand across nearby rockwork and toward neighboring corals over time.

Feeding

Feeding is usually optional. Some colonies accept fine foods, which can be offered occasionally without relying on feeding as a required part of care.

General Care

Maintain stable reef conditions and observe the colony as it settles in. Make lighting changes gradually, and handle zoanthids carefully with appropriate eye and skin protection during placement, maintenance, or frag work.

Give it stable conditions and space to establish on its chosen rockwork.
