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 avoid sudden increases in intensity, then observe its response before making further changes.

Flow

Use low to moderate indirect flow. Gentle, dispersed movement helps keep debris from settling without exposing the fleshy polyps to direct aggressive flow.

Placement

Place it in lower to middle reef areas with moderate spacing from nearby corals. Begin with a stable location and adjust gradually only if needed.

Temperament

Allow space between this semi-aggressive coral and neighboring corals. Its placement should account for potential stinging, especially around other fleshy LPS corals.

Feeding

Occasional small meaty foods are optional. Target feeding can be offered when practical, but stable conditions remain the foundation of routine care.

General Care

Maintain stable reef conditions and observe polyp response after any change. Avoid sudden increases in lighting or water movement, and make adjustments gradually. Moderate care is best supported by consistent placement, suitable spacing, and gentle flow.

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