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. Begin with gentler exposure and acclimate lighting gradually, watching the colony’s response before moving it into brighter conditions.

Flow

Provide low to moderate, varied flow. Water movement should be sufficient to keep the colony clear without directing a constant harsh stream at it.

Placement

Place it in lower to middle reef areas. Secure the frag where it can receive appropriate light and varied flow, then allow time to adjust.

Temperament

Expect generally peaceful behavior, but leave room for spread. Monitor nearby corals and maintain space so the colony does not gradually encroach on its neighbors.

Feeding

Feeding is usually optional. Some colonies may accept fine foods, but stable reef conditions remain the primary day-to-day care priority.

General Care

Maintain stable reef conditions and observe the colony regularly as it acclimates. Adjust light exposure gradually rather than making abrupt changes. Handle zoanthids carefully, using appropriate eye and skin protection during placement, maintenance, or frag work.

Give it stable conditions and room to spread at its own pace.
