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

Use low to moderate lighting. Start with gentler exposure during acclimation, then observe polyp extension and adjust gradually if needed.

Flow

Provide low to moderate varied flow. Gentle changing movement helps the polyps sway naturally while avoiding harsh direct flow.

Placement

Place it in lower to middle reef areas. Give the coral time to acclimate before moving it, and choose a location that allows room for spreading growth.

Temperament

This coral is peaceful, but it can spread across nearby rockwork. Leave space around its placement and monitor its expansion so it does not overtake neighboring corals.

Feeding

Feeding is usually optional, though fine suspended foods may be accepted. Maintain consistent reef husbandry whether or not supplemental feeding is offered.

General Care

Maintain stable reef conditions and make changes gradually. Watch polyp extension, placement, and surrounding growth, especially after acclimation or adjustments to lighting and flow. Avoid abrupt changes and harsh direct current, which can limit comfortable extension.

Allow space for spread and adjust placement gradually as the coral settles in.
