Care Level: Beginner to Moderate
Lighting
Provide low to moderate lighting. Acclimate lighting gradually, especially when moving the coral into a brighter established reef system.
Flow
Use low to moderate varied flow. Gentle changing movement helps keep the colony clear without subjecting it to constant direct current.
Placement
Place it in lower to middle reef areas. Start with a secure location and make gradual adjustments only after observing its response to light and flow.
Temperament
It is generally peaceful, but leave room for it to spread across nearby rockwork. Plan its location with neighboring corals in mind as the colony expands.
Feeding
Feeding is usually optional. Some colonies accept fine foods, which can be offered as part of a regular, measured reef-feeding routine.
General Care
Maintain stable reef conditions and observe the colony regularly after introduction. Gradual light acclimation supports a smoother transition, and careful handling with appropriate eye and skin protection is recommended.
Give it stable conditions, thoughtful placement, and space to grow.
