Quick Care Summary

• Lighting: Low to moderate lighting
• Flow: Low to moderate indirect flow
• Placement: Lower to middle reef areas
• Temperament: Semi-aggressive
• Care Level: Moderate

Lighting

Provide low to moderate lighting. Acclimate gradually to any lighting change, since sudden increases can stress this coral.

Flow

Use low to moderate indirect flow that gently moves water around the polyps. Avoid direct, aggressive flow that can irritate its fleshy tissue.

Placement

Place it in lower to middle reef areas with moderate placement in mind. Start lower during acclimation, then adjust only gradually if needed.

Temperament

Allow space between this semi-aggressive coral and nearby corals. Its stinging potential makes spacing important, especially around other fleshy LPS corals.

Feeding

Offer occasional small meaty foods if desired. Feeding is optional, and care should focus first on stable conditions and suitable placement.

General Care

Maintain stable aquarium conditions and observe polyp response after adjustments. Avoid sudden changes in lighting or water movement, and make placement changes gradually. Moderate care is best supported by consistent routine maintenance and adequate room from neighboring corals.

Give this acan stable conditions, indirect flow, and room from nearby corals.
