  Special Requirements and Information:
Blastomussa should be placed medium to low in the tank. Bright light can have a deleterious affect on your Blasto so do not place it close to any high-output light source. Begin low in the tank until they become acclimated and then you can move them. Since they have nematocyst stinging cells, they can attack other corals, so give them space. They are also very sensitive to other polyp attacks
Feed anytime during the day. Once they're accustomed to your tank, they can be introduced to frozen foods such as chopped blood worms, artemia or squid. Place the defrosted food directly over the Blasto.
Blastomussa are colony formers, so don't be surprised if new bodies form.
