Quick Care Summary

• Lighting: Low to moderate lighting
• Flow: Low to moderate varied flow
• Placement: Lower to middle reef areas
• Temperament: Peaceful but capable of spreading
• Care Level: Beginner to Moderate

Lighting

Provide low to moderate lighting. Start in gentler light during acclimation, then adjust placement gradually based on polyp response.

Flow

Use low to moderate varied flow. Gentle changing movement helps avoid harsh direct flow while keeping the polyps moving naturally.

Placement

Place it in lower to middle reef areas. Give it room to settle, and make placement changes gradually rather than abruptly.

Temperament

It is generally peaceful, but it can spread across nearby rockwork. Leave space around desired boundaries and monitor neighboring corals as the colony expands.

Feeding

Feeding is usually optional. Fine suspended foods may be accepted, but stable reef conditions remain the primary care focus.

General Care

Maintain stable reef conditions and observe polyp extension after introduction or adjustments. Avoid abrupt changes in lighting, flow, or placement, and redirect any harsh direct current. Plan for spreading growth before positioning it near corals you want to keep separate.

A measured acclimation and planned space support long-term placement.
