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 conservatively and acclimate gradually, since sudden increases in light can stress this coral.

Flow

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

Placement

Place it in lower to middle reef areas. Give it time to adjust after introduction, and make changes to light or water movement gradually.

Temperament

Allow ample spacing from neighboring corals. This semi-aggressive acan may sting nearby corals, so avoid crowding and monitor its reach as it settles.

Feeding

Occasional small meaty foods are optional. Target feeding can be offered carefully, but stable conditions remain the main priority.

General Care

Maintain stable aquarium conditions and observe polyp response during acclimation. Avoid abrupt changes in lighting or flow, keep placement moderate, and adjust only gradually if the coral appears unsettled.

Provide steady care, indirect flow, and room from neighboring corals.
