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

Use low to moderate lighting. Acclimate gradually to avoid sudden light stress, then observe polyp response before making further placement changes.

Flow

Provide low to moderate, varied flow. Gentle changing movement helps keep the colony clear without continually blasting the polyps.

Placement

Place it in lower to middle reef areas. Start with a stable mounting location and allow time for lighting acclimation before moving it higher.

Temperament

Keep reasonable space around the colony as it expands. Zoanthids are generally peaceful, but they can spread across nearby rockwork and compete for available room.

Feeding

Feeding is usually optional. Some colonies may accept fine foods, but consistent reef conditions remain the main priority.

General Care

Maintain stable reef conditions and watch for normal polyp extension after acclimation. Make adjustments gradually rather than all at once, and handle zoanthids carefully with appropriate eye and skin protection during mounting or maintenance.

Allow the colony time to settle before judging its final placement.
