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 under gentler light during acclimation, then adjust placement gradually while watching polyp extension and overall response.

Flow

Use low to moderate varied flow. Gentle, changing current helps keep the polyps moving without subjecting the coral to harsh direct flow.

Placement

Place it in lower to middle reef areas. Allow time to acclimate after introduction, and make any changes to light or flow gradually rather than abruptly.

Temperament

Keep it with suitable neighbors and leave room for spreading growth. It is generally peaceful, but clove polyps can expand onto nearby rockwork and compete for available space.

Feeding

Feeding is usually optional. Fine suspended foods may be accepted, but stable reef conditions and appropriate light and flow remain the primary routine care needs.

General Care

Maintain stable reef conditions and observe polyp extension after placement or adjustments. Avoid sudden changes in lighting, flow, or other aquarium conditions, and avoid harsh direct current that can keep polyps from extending normally.

Give it room to spread and make changes gradually.
