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. Introduce it gradually to the intended intensity and watch for its response before making further placement or lighting adjustments.

Flow

Use moderate, indirect, varied flow that keeps the tentacles moving naturally. Avoid strong direct flow, which can prevent comfortable extension and irritate fleshy tissue.

Placement

Place it in lower to middle reef areas. Give the coral time to acclimate after placement, and secure it where changing flow will not push the tentacles into nearby corals.

Temperament

Allow generous spacing from neighboring corals. Torch corals are aggressive and have stinging potential, so keep its tentacles well clear of other specimens, especially after they expand.

Feeding

Occasional meaty foods may be offered, but feeding is optional. Target feed gently when desired and avoid blasting the coral with food or flow.

General Care

Maintain stable reef conditions, with particular attention to salinity and alkalinity, and avoid sudden changes. Observe tentacle extension, tissue condition, and nearby coral spacing regularly, adjusting placement only when needed.
