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. Begin with gentler exposure during acclimation, then observe polyp extension and adjust placement gradually rather than making abrupt lighting changes.

Flow

Use low to moderate, varied flow. Gentle changing movement helps avoid stagnant areas without subjecting the polyps to harsh direct current.

Placement

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

Temperament

It is generally peaceful, but it can spread across nearby rockwork. Leave room around the colony and monitor its expansion so neighboring corals retain adequate space.

Feeding

Feeding is usually optional, though fine suspended foods may be accepted. If feeding, offer modest amounts and watch for a positive response.

General Care

Maintain stable reef conditions and make changes gradually. Watch for normal extension, response to flow, and spreading growth, while avoiding harsh direct flow or sudden shifts in lighting and placement.

Plan its location with future spreading growth in mind.
