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. Acclimate gradually to the aquarium’s lighting so the colony can adjust without abrupt changes.

Flow

Use low to moderate, varied flow. Gentle changing movement helps keep the plug clear while avoiding a consistently forceful stream.

Placement

Place it in lower to middle reef areas. Start with a stable spot and adjust placement gradually if its response suggests a different position is needed.

Temperament

Expect generally peaceful behavior, but allow room for it to spread. Plan nearby coral placement with future coverage in mind rather than crowding the plug.

Feeding

Feeding is usually optional. Some colonies may accept fine foods, but stable reef conditions remain the primary care focus.

General Care

Maintain stable reef conditions and observe the colony as it settles in. Gradual light acclimation is important, and careful handling with appropriate eye and skin protection is recommended when moving or maintaining the plug.

A practical choice for building a mixed zoanthid area over time.
