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, then acclimate it gradually to its final intensity. Slow adjustment helps avoid unnecessary light stress when introducing it to an established reef.

Flow

Provide low to moderate, varied flow that keeps the colony clear without persistent direct blast. Adjust circulation if detritus settles around the polyps.

Placement

Place it in lower to middle reef areas and allow time to adjust after introduction. Begin with gentler light exposure, then make gradual changes only as needed.

Temperament

Keep room for future spread. Zoanthids are generally peaceful, but the colony can expand onto nearby rockwork and may compete with corals placed too close.

Feeding

Feeding is usually optional. Some colonies may accept fine foods, but stable reef conditions and appropriate lighting remain the primary routine.

General Care

Maintain stable reef conditions and observe the colony as it acclimates. Make lighting or flow changes gradually rather than all at once. Handle zoanthids carefully, using appropriate eye and skin protection during maintenance or fragging.

Give it stable conditions and space to spread across its chosen rockwork.
