Quick Care Summary

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

Lighting

Use low to moderate lighting. Acclimate gradually, especially when moving it into brighter areas, and avoid sudden increases in intensity.

Flow

Provide low to moderate indirect flow. Gentle movement helps keep the coral clear of debris without blasting its fleshy polyps.

Placement

Place it in lower to middle reef areas. Start with moderate placement and make changes gradually as the coral adjusts to its position.

Temperament

Allow space from neighboring corals. This semi-aggressive coral can sting nearby specimens, so leave room around it rather than placing it tightly in a mixed coral garden.

Feeding

Feeding is optional. Occasional small meaty foods can be offered, while maintaining appropriate lighting and stable conditions as the foundation of care.

General Care

Maintain stable aquarium conditions and observe the coral after any adjustment. Avoid sudden increases in lighting or water movement, and give it time to settle before making further placement or flow changes.

Provide gentle consistency, room to expand, and gradual acclimation.
