The Sea Apple is a relative of other sea cucumbers and has the ability to spew it guts at predators. It needs an established aquarium with live rock to move around and find a favorable location, usually in a high current area. It is very sensitive to copper-based medications. Sudden changes in pH or salinity can cause undue stress and may trigger an unwanted reaction or possibly death.

Do not house these cucumbers with fish that have teeth such as Triggers, Puffers or large Wrasses. Also be cautious when keeping with some species of Butterflyfish or Angelfish known to pick on invertebrates.

As a filter feeder, it will need to be fed a diet of phytoplankton or microplankton on a daily basis.
