Quick Care Summary

• Lighting: Moderate lighting
• Flow: Moderate, indirect and varied flow
• Placement: Lower to middle reef areas
• Temperament: Aggressive
• Care Level: Moderate

Lighting

Provide moderate lighting. Start with a gentler position during acclimation, then adjust placement gradually while watching polyp extension and overall response.

Flow

Use moderate, indirect, varied flow. Water movement should keep the polyps moving without blasting the coral with a strong direct stream.

Placement

Place it in lower to middle reef areas. Give the coral time to acclimate after placement, and avoid locations exposed to direct, forceful circulation.

Temperament

Allow generous spacing from nearby corals. Torch corals can sting neighbors, so keep its reach in mind and do not position it where extended polyps can contact other corals.

Feeding

Offer occasional meaty foods if desired. Feeding is optional, and any food should be delivered gently without creating excessive flow around the polyps.

General Care

Maintain stable reef conditions, with particular attention to salinity and alkalinity. Avoid sudden changes, observe polyp extension regularly, and make adjustments gradually when lighting, flow, or placement needs refinement.

Moderate care and careful spacing help this torch coral settle in well.
