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. Acclimate gradually when moving it into brighter areas, then watch its response before making further placement changes.

Flow

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

Placement

Place it in lower to middle reef areas. Give the coral time to adjust after placement, and avoid positioning it where direct flow repeatedly strikes its polyps.

Temperament

Allow generous spacing from neighboring corals. Torch corals are aggressive and can sting nearby corals, so leave room for polyp extension and avoid close contact.

Feeding

Occasional meaty foods may be offered, but feeding is optional. Target feeding gently can help prevent food from being swept away by circulation.

General Care

Maintain stable reef conditions, with particular attention to salinity and alkalinity. Avoid sudden changes in lighting, flow, or placement, and observe polyp extension regularly for signs that its environment needs adjustment.

Provide stable conditions and ample space for this torch coral to extend safely.
