Care Level: Beginner to Moderate
Lighting
Provide low to moderate lighting, then acclimate gradually to its final intensity. Slow adjustment helps this zoanthid settle without abrupt changes in exposure.
Flow
Use low to moderate, varied flow that keeps the colony clear without blasting it directly. Observe polyp response and adjust circulation as needed.
Placement
Place it in lower to middle reef areas and allow time to acclimate after introduction. Secure the frag where it can remain undisturbed while it settles.
Temperament
This coral is generally peaceful, but it can spread across nearby rockwork. Leave room for expansion and plan its location so growth does not encroach on neighboring corals.
Feeding
Feeding is usually optional. Some colonies accept fine foods, which can be offered occasionally if desired without relying on feeding as a care requirement.
General Care
Maintain stable reef conditions and watch for normal polyp response as the coral acclimates. Gradual lighting changes are preferred, and careful handling with appropriate eye and skin protection is recommended.
Give it stable conditions, measured acclimation, and space to spread.
