Quick Care Summary

• Lighting: Low to moderate lighting
• Flow: Moderate indirect flow
• Placement: Lower to middle reef areas
• Temperament: Aggressive
• Care Level: Moderate

Lighting

Provide low to moderate lighting. Begin with gentler exposure and acclimate gradually to avoid abrupt intensity changes.

Flow

Use moderate, indirect flow. Water movement should keep the coral clear without blasting its fleshy tissue with strong direct current.

Placement

Place it in lower to middle reef areas. Set it securely, then allow time to adjust rather than frequently moving it or changing exposure.

Temperament

Give this aggressive coral generous spacing from neighbors. Nighttime sweeper or feeding tentacles can reach nearby corals, so avoid close placement even when tentacles are not visible during the day.

Feeding

Offer occasional small meaty foods if desired. Feeding is optional, but target feeding can be done when feeding tentacles are present.

General Care

Maintain stable conditions and make changes gradually. Observe tissue response, extension, and nearby coral spacing after adjustments to lighting, flow, or placement; consistency is preferable to repeated changes in intensity or location.

Allow space, steady conditions, and gentle acclimation for dependable long-term care.
