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. Start with gentler exposure and increase only gradually, avoiding sudden light changes while the coral adjusts.

Flow

Use low to moderate indirect flow. Gentle, dispersed movement helps keep the coral clear without blasting its fleshy polyps with direct current.

Placement

Place it in lower to middle reef areas with moderate placement in mind. Acclimate gradually to its final lighting and water movement rather than moving it into intense conditions quickly.

Temperament

Allow space from neighboring corals. This semi-aggressive LPS coral may sting nearby specimens, so avoid close contact and leave room as its polyps extend.

Feeding

Offer occasional small meaty foods if desired. Feeding is optional, but target feeding can be done carefully without overloading the aquarium.

General Care

Maintain stable aquarium conditions and observe polyp response after any adjustment. Avoid sudden increases in lighting or water movement, and make placement changes gradually to reduce stress on this fleshy LPS coral.

Give it stable conditions, gentle acclimation, and adequate room from nearby corals.
