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 gradually while watching for a comfortable, consistent appearance.

Flow

Use low to moderate varied flow. Gentle changing movement helps keep the polyps moving without exposing them to harsh direct flow.

Placement

Place it in lower to middle reef areas. Give the frag time to acclimate in its initial location, and avoid abrupt changes in light or flow.

Temperament

Keep space available for spreading growth. This is generally peaceful, but clove polyps can expand across nearby rockwork and may require management around neighboring corals.

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 make changes gradually. Observe polyp extension and overall response after placement, lighting adjustments, or flow changes. Avoid harsh direct flow and allow time for acclimation before making further adjustments.

Plan its location carefully to accommodate spreading over time.
