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. Begin with gentler exposure and observe its response as it settles, avoiding sudden increases in intensity.

Flow

Provide 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 at a sand-and-rock edge. Allow it to choose and secure its foot, as it may move after introduction.

Temperament

Give it space from nearby corals and sessile neighbors. It is semi-aggressive and capable of moving, so leave room for relocation and potential contact.

Feeding

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

General Care

Maintain stable salinity and temperature, and protect the foot from damage during handling or placement. Allow time for attachment before making adjustments, and monitor its location and response to lighting and flow as it settles.

Give this anemone room to settle before changing its placement or flow.
