Rock Flower Anemone - Care Requirements

This is a WYSIWYG anemone, meaning the anemone shown in the photo is the exact piece you will receive.

Quick Care Summary

• Lighting: Low to moderate lighting
• Flow: Low to moderate indirect flow
• Placement: Lower rock crevice or sand-and-rock edge
• Temperament: Semi-aggressive and capable of moving
• Care Level: Beginner to Moderate

Lighting

Use low to moderate lighting. Introduce it thoughtfully and observe its response as it adjusts, avoiding abrupt changes in exposure.

Flow

Provide low to moderate indirect flow. Avoid strong direct flow, which can prevent the anemone from settling comfortably or keeping its foot secure.

Placement

Place it in a lower rock crevice or along a sand-and-rock edge. Give it time to choose a spot and secure its foot without disturbance.

Temperament

Plan for a semi-aggressive anemone that may move. Leave space from nearby corals and other reef inhabitants so its movement does not create unwanted contact.

Feeding

Occasional small meaty foods may be offered, but feeding is optional. Keep portions modest and remove any uneaten food promptly.

General Care

Maintain stable salinity and temperature, and protect the foot from damage during placement or maintenance. Check that it remains securely attached, especially after introduction, and allow time for settling before making further adjustments.

Give it room to settle, and monitor its position as it acclimates.
