Care Level: Beginner to Moderate
Lighting
Provide low to moderate lighting. Start with gentler exposure and acclimate lighting gradually, watching the colony’s response before making changes.
Flow
Use low to moderate, varied flow. Gentle changing movement helps keep the colony clear without concentrating force directly on the polyps.
Placement
Place it in lower to middle reef areas. Secure the frag where it can receive suitable light and varied flow, then allow time to adjust.
Temperament
Keep space around the colony as it expands. Zoanthids are generally peaceful, but they can spread onto nearby rockwork and neighboring corals.
Feeding
Feeding is usually optional. Some colonies accept fine foods, so offer small amounts occasionally if desired and observe the response.
General Care
Maintain stable reef conditions and make adjustments gradually. Observe polyp extension and surrounding growth, and handle zoanthids carefully with appropriate eye and skin protection during placement, fragging, or maintenance.
Give it stable conditions and room to spread across its chosen rockwork.
