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. Start with gentler exposure and acclimate gradually to stronger lighting so the colony can adjust without sudden changes.

Flow

Use low to moderate, varied flow. Gentle changing water movement helps keep the polyps clear while avoiding a constant direct blast.

Placement

Place it in lower to middle reef areas. Secure the frag where it can receive suitable light and varied flow, then allow time to settle after placement.

Temperament

Keep it with generally peaceful neighbors, but leave room for spreading. Monitor nearby rockwork and corals as the colony establishes and expands.

Feeding

Feeding is usually optional. Some colonies accept fine foods, which can be offered occasionally without making it a required part of care.

General Care

Maintain stable reef conditions and observe polyp response as the coral acclimates. Adjust light or flow gradually rather than making abrupt changes. Handle zoanthids carefully, using appropriate eye and skin protection during fragging, moving, or maintenance.

Give this colony stable conditions and room to spread naturally.
