Quick Care Summary

• Lighting: Low to moderate lighting
• Flow: Moderate, varied flow
• Placement: Lower to middle reef areas with growth room
• Temperament: Generally peaceful but can overgrow neighbors
• Care Level: Moderate

Lighting

Provide low to moderate lighting. Acclimate gradually to its final intensity and watch for consistent coloration and extension as it settles in.

Flow

Use moderate, varied flow. Alternating movement helps keep the coral clear of settled debris without focusing a harsh, constant stream on one area.

Placement

Place it in lower to middle reef areas on a stable mounting surface. Leave open room around the edges for encrusting growth as it establishes.

Temperament

Give it space from neighboring corals. It is generally peaceful, but its encrusting growth can gradually overgrow corals placed too close.

Feeding

Rely primarily on appropriate lighting, with optional fine coral foods offered occasionally. Avoid overfeeding and observe its response to any supplemental feeding.

General Care

Maintain consistent reef conditions and secure the coral where it can establish new growth. Check that debris is not collecting on its surface, monitor nearby corals as it spreads, and make changes gradually rather than abruptly.

Provide stable conditions and growth room for steady encrusting development.
