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. Introduce it gradually to the intended light level and watch polyp extension as it settles into the aquarium.

Flow

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

Placement

Place it in lower to middle reef areas. Start with a secure location, then acclimate gradually rather than making abrupt changes in light or flow.

Temperament

Keep it with appropriate room to spread. Clove polyps are generally peaceful, but spreading growth can allow them to occupy nearby rockwork and encroach on neighboring corals.

Feeding

Feeding is usually optional. Fine suspended foods may be accepted, but stable reef conditions remain the primary focus for routine care.

General Care

Maintain stable reef conditions and make changes gradually. Avoid abrupt acclimation shifts and harsh direct flow, then observe polyp extension and spreading growth to determine whether placement remains suitable over time.

Plan its placement with future spreading growth in mind.
