Dancing bones cactus is strange compared to other cacti but still not difficult in cultivation. Like other cacti, it prefers well draining soil and has a partial dormancy in winter. Unlike many other cacti, it likes a bit more water and a bit less sunlight. Watering schedule will vary with soil, temperature and humidity but, in general, you should water whenever the soil fully dries out. Wrinkles on the plant's stems are a sure sign of thirst. An unobstructed, east or west facing window should provide enough light, but if you see signs of stretching, move it to a south facing window.
In the winter, reduce your watering schedule and allow the soil to remain bone dry for a couple days.
