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

Use low to moderate lighting. Acclimate lighting gradually to help the colony adjust, especially when moving it into a brighter established reef.

Flow

Provide low to moderate varied flow. Gentle, changing movement helps keep the polyps clear without subjecting them to constant direct flow.

Placement

Place it in lower to middle reef areas. Start with a suitable lower position during acclimation, then adjust placement only if needed for its response.

Temperament

Keep space around the colony as it grows. Zoanthids are generally peaceful, but they can spread onto nearby rockwork and may encroach on neighboring corals.

Feeding

Feeding is usually optional. Some colonies accept fine foods, but stable reef conditions remain the main foundation of routine care.

General Care

Maintain stable reef conditions and observe polyp response after placement or lighting changes. Handle zoanthids carefully, using appropriate eye and skin protection when moving, mounting, or maintaining the specimen.

Allow room for future spread when planning its place in the reef.
