Care Level: Beginner to Moderate
Lighting
Provide low to moderate lighting. Begin with gentler exposure during introduction, then let the anemone settle before making changes to its position or lighting.
Flow
Use low to moderate indirect flow. Avoid strong direct flow, which can interfere with the anemone settling and securing its foot.
Placement
Place it in a lower rock crevice or along a sand-and-rock edge. Allow time for it to attach securely, and protect its foot from damage while positioning it.
Temperament
Give it space from nearby corals and anemones. Rock flower anemones are semi-aggressive, can sting neighboring specimens, and may move after introduction to find a preferred location.
Feeding
Feeding is optional. An occasional small meaty offering can be provided, but avoid forcing food or disturbing the anemone while it is settling.
General Care
Maintain stable salinity and temperature, and observe its location after introduction. It may move before choosing a secure position, so avoid repeated handling and keep the surrounding area clear while it establishes its foot.
Give it time to settle, attach, and choose its preferred position.
