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 with gentler exposure during acclimation, then observe polyp extension and adjust placement gradually if needed.

Flow

Use low to moderate varied flow. Gentle, changing circulation helps the polyps move naturally without exposing them to harsh direct flow.

Placement

Place it in lower to middle reef areas. Allow time to acclimate before making changes, and choose a location where its spreading growth can be managed.

Temperament

Keep it with peaceful neighbors, but leave room around its base. Clove polyps are peaceful, yet they can spread onto nearby rockwork and compete for available space.

Feeding

Feeding is usually optional. Fine suspended foods may be accepted, but stable reef conditions remain the main priority for routine care.

General Care

Maintain stable reef conditions and make acclimation changes gradually. Watch polyp extension, flow response, and spreading growth over time, especially after moving the coral or adjusting lighting and circulation.

Give this soft coral space to spread and avoid abrupt changes.
