Lighting

Use low to moderate lighting. Acclimate lighting gradually, especially when moving the coral into a brighter area of the reef.

Flow

Provide low to moderate varied flow. Aim for gentle, changing water movement rather than a constant direct blast.

Placement

Place it in lower to middle reef areas. Start with a secure location and allow time to adjust before making further placement changes.

Temperament

It is generally peaceful, but it can spread over nearby surfaces. Leave room around the colony and monitor its expansion near other corals.

Feeding

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

General Care

Maintain stable reef conditions and observe the colony as it settles in. Make lighting changes gradually, keep its placement secure, and handle zoanthids carefully with appropriate eye and skin protection.

Give it stable conditions, measured adjustments, and room to spread.
