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. Acclimate lighting gradually, especially when introducing the coral to a brighter area of the reef.

Flow

Use low to moderate varied flow. Gentle changing movement helps keep the colony clear without concentrating flow directly on it.

Placement

Place it in lower to middle reef areas. Start with a suitable lower or middle location and adjust only after observing its response.

Temperament

Allow room for it to spread. Zoanthids are generally peaceful, but colonies can expand across nearby rockwork and may eventually crowd neighboring corals.

Feeding

Feeding is usually optional. Some colonies 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 after placement. Make lighting changes gradually, and handle zoanthids carefully using appropriate eye and skin protection during maintenance or frag work.

Give it space, stable conditions, and time to settle into its placement.
