Care Level: Beginner to Moderate
Lighting
Provide low to moderate lighting. Acclimate gradually to avoid abrupt light changes, then observe polyp response and adjust placement only as needed.
Flow
Use low to moderate, varied flow. Gentle movement helps keep the colony clear without subjecting the polyps to constant direct blast.
Placement
Place it in lower to middle reef areas. Start with a stable location and allow time for lighting acclimation before making further placement changes.
Temperament
Generally peaceful, but allow room for spreading. Plan nearby coral placement with future expansion in mind and monitor its boundaries over time.
Feeding
Feeding is usually optional. Some colonies may accept fine foods, so offer small amounts only if desired and observe the response.
General Care
Maintain stable reef conditions and make lighting changes gradually. Observe polyp extension and overall appearance as the coral settles. Handle zoanthids carefully, using appropriate eye and skin protection during maintenance or frag work.
Give this zoanthid room to settle and monitor its spread as it establishes.
