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 this coral under gentler light during acclimation, then observe polyp extension and adjust placement gradually if needed.

Flow

Use low to moderate, varied flow. Gentle changing movement helps the polyps move naturally while avoiding harsh direct flow that can keep them withdrawn.

Placement

Place it in lower to middle reef areas. Allow time to acclimate after introduction, and secure the frag where its spreading growth can be managed.

Temperament

Plan for spreading growth despite its peaceful temperament. Give it room from neighboring corals and consider an isolated rock or defined area to make future management easier.

Feeding

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

General Care

Maintain stable reef conditions and make changes gradually. Watch for polyp extension, response to flow, and spreading onto nearby surfaces; avoid abrupt acclimation changes or harsh direct flow.

A practical soft coral choice for controlled movement and manageable placement.
