Quick Care Summary

• Lighting: Low to moderate lighting
• Flow: Low to moderate varied flow
• Placement: Lower to middle reef areas
• Temperament: Generally peaceful but can spread
• Care Level: Beginner to Moderate

Lighting

Provide low to moderate lighting and acclimate gradually to stronger intensity. This helps the colony adjust without abrupt changes in exposure.

Flow

Use low to moderate varied flow that keeps the polyps clear without directing a harsh stream at the colony.

Placement

Place it in lower to middle reef areas, then allow time to adjust before changing its position or lighting exposure.

Temperament

Keep it spaced with future growth in mind. Zoanthids are generally peaceful, but colonies can spread onto nearby rockwork and corals over time.

Feeding

Feeding is usually optional. Some colonies accept fine foods, but stable reef conditions remain the main priority.

General Care

Maintain stable reef conditions and observe polyp extension and placement response after introduction. Acclimate lighting gradually, and handle zoanthids carefully with appropriate eye and skin protection during fragging, moving, or maintenance.

Plan its location thoughtfully so the colony has room to spread.
