Quick Care Summary

• Flow: Low to moderate indirect flow
• Placement: Lower to middle reef areas
• Temperament: Semi-aggressive
• Care Level: Moderate

Lighting

Provide low to moderate lighting. Acclimate gradually, especially when moving it under brighter fixtures, and avoid sudden light increases.

Flow

Use low to moderate indirect flow. Gentle, dispersed movement helps keep the coral clear without blasting its fleshy polyps.

Placement

Place it in lower to middle reef areas with moderate spacing. Start in a calmer location and adjust slowly if lighting or flow needs refinement.

Temperament

Allow room between this semi-aggressive coral and nearby corals. Maintain spacing to reduce contact and potential stinging issues as polyps expand.

Feeding

Feeding is optional. Occasional small meaty foods can be offered, with care taken not to overfeed the surrounding aquarium.

General Care

Maintain stable conditions and observe polyp response after any change. Avoid sudden increases in lighting or water movement, and make adjustments gradually to help this moderate-care LPS coral settle in.

Give it stable conditions, indirect flow, and room from neighboring corals.
