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. Begin with gentler exposure and observe its response as it settles into its chosen location.

Flow

Use low to moderate indirect flow. Avoid strong direct flow, which can keep the tentacles and foot from settling comfortably.

Placement

Place it at a lower rock crevice or along a sand-and-rock edge. Allow it time to secure its foot, and expect it may move before choosing a location.

Temperament

Give it open space from nearby corals and anemones. It is semi-aggressive, may move, and should be positioned with its potential movement and contact in mind.

Feeding

Feeding is optional. An occasional small meaty offering can be provided when appropriate, while avoiding overfeeding or disturbing its foot.

General Care

Maintain stable salinity and temperature, and protect the foot from damage during placement or any necessary repositioning. Check that it has attached securely, then let it settle without frequent handling. Continue observing its location as it may move.

Provide gentle conditions and patience while it establishes a secure footing.
