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 with gentler exposure and acclimate lighting gradually, watching polyp response before moving the coral into brighter areas.

Flow

Use low to moderate, varied water flow. Gentle changing movement helps keep the colony clear without exposing it to a constant, forceful stream.

Placement

Place this coral in lower to middle reef areas. Secure it where it can receive suitable light and varied flow, then allow time to adjust before relocating.

Temperament

Expect generally peaceful behavior, but leave room for the colony to spread. Monitor nearby corals and plan placement so expansion does not crowd surrounding reef space.

Feeding

Feeding is usually optional. Some colonies may accept fine foods, but stable reef conditions and appropriate lighting remain the primary care focus.

General Care

Maintain stable reef conditions and observe the colony regularly for normal polyp response. Acclimate lighting gradually after introduction or relocation. Handle zoanthids carefully, using appropriate eye and skin protection during maintenance, fragging, or placement.

Give the colony room to spread and adjust conditions gradually.
