Description

Care: Low to moderate light and low to moderate flow, ideally on the sand bed or a low rock. Target feed small meaty foods once or twice a week.

Notes from the King:

"Scolys are a perfect step up once you've got the basics down. I keep them low in the tank, right on the sand or a low rock, with gentle flow so they can puff up big. Feed them a little mysis or Reef-Roids once or twice a week, and give them some space, because they'll sting neighbors at night."
