Rock Flower Anemone - Care Requirements

Rock Flower Anemone is a rock flower anemone suited to a lower reef area with gentle water movement. This WYSIWYG anemone is best introduced with a protected place to settle, then observed as it chooses and secures a comfortable position in the aquarium.

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. Start with a gentler exposure during introduction and adjust only after it has attached and settled into its chosen location.

Flow

Provide low to moderate indirect flow. Avoid strong direct flow, which can interfere with settling and may keep the foot from securing properly.

Placement

Place it in a lower rock crevice or along a sand-and-rock edge. Give it time to attach, protect its foot from damage, and expect that it may move.

Temperament

Allow extra space from nearby corals and anemones. Rock flower anemones are semi-aggressive, and their ability to move means neighboring placement should be planned carefully.

Feeding

Feeding is optional. Occasional small meaty foods can be offered, but stable conditions and a secure attachment point remain the priority.

General Care

Maintain stable salinity and temperature, especially after introduction. Avoid repeatedly relocating it once it has begun to settle, and monitor its position so the foot remains protected from damage and nearby corals have adequate space.

Give it a secure lower placement and patience to settle naturally.
