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 light intensity, especially when moving it into a new reef aquarium.

Flow

Use low to moderate indirect flow. Gentle, indirect movement helps keep the coral clear without exposing its fleshy polyps to direct aggressive flow.

Placement

Place it in lower to middle reef areas. Allow time to acclimate after placement, and avoid sudden changes in lighting or water movement.

Temperament

Give this semi-aggressive coral adequate spacing from neighboring corals. Leave room around the colony to reduce contact and potential stinging issues as polyps expand.

Feeding

Occasional small meaty foods can be offered, but feeding is optional. Target feeding may be easiest when polyps are extended.

General Care

Maintain stable aquarium conditions and observe polyp response after any adjustment. Make changes gradually, particularly with lighting and flow, rather than relocating the coral or increasing equipment output abruptly.

Provide stable care, gentle flow, and room from nearby corals.
