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, then acclimate gradually to its final intensity. Slow adjustment helps avoid sudden light stress and lets the colony settle into its placement.

Flow

Use low to moderate varied flow. Gentle, changing movement helps keep the colony clear without continuously blasting the polyps with direct current.

Placement

Place it in lower to middle reef areas. Start with a secure location and adjust gradually only if lighting or flow needs refinement.

Temperament

Keep it spaced with its ability to spread in mind. It is generally peaceful, but growth across nearby rockwork can bring it into contact with neighboring corals.

Feeding

Feeding is usually optional. Some colonies may accept fine foods, but stable reef conditions remain the main priority for routine care.

General Care

Maintain stable reef conditions and observe polyp response after placement or adjustments. Acclimate lighting gradually, avoid abrupt changes, and handle zoanthids carefully with appropriate eye and skin protection during maintenance or frag work.

Allow time for acclimation and monitor its placement as it settles in.
