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

Provide low to moderate lighting. Introduce it gradually to the aquarium’s lighting and observe its position after it has had time to settle.

Flow

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

Placement

Place it in a lower rock crevice or along a sand-and-rock edge. Allow time to attach, and protect its foot from damage during introduction and any repositioning.

Temperament

Give it space from neighboring corals and anemones. It is semi-aggressive and may move, so leave room for it to settle without contacting nearby specimens.

Feeding

Feeding is optional. An occasional small meaty food offering can be provided, but stable conditions and a secure placement remain the priority.

General Care

Maintain stable salinity and temperature, especially while it is settling. Check that the foot is protected and securely attached before making placement changes. Expect movement to be possible, and monitor nearby corals if it changes position.

Allow a calm introduction period before adjusting light, flow, or placement.
