    Place it on the sand, in medium flow and good lighting. Target feeding once a week will make it quite happy.

    I have one.
    I'd say Low flow, everywhere says moderate to low, but anything more than low they get un happy and walk to low flow.
    Feed it weekly, you can feed shrimp or anything meaty.
    And when you first place them in the tank it wont open up for a few days.
    Always put on sand bed because they move and can injure its self easy.
