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, especially when moving the coral into brighter areas, to avoid sudden changes in light exposure.

Flow

Use low to moderate indirect flow. Gentle movement helps keep debris from settling while avoiding the direct, aggressive flow that can irritate fleshy polyps.

Placement

Place it in lower to middle reef areas with moderate placement in mind. Start lower during acclimation, then adjust only gradually if needed.

Temperament

Allow space between this semi-aggressive coral and nearby corals. Give its polyps room so neighboring specimens are less likely to be affected by contact.

Feeding

Occasional small meaty foods may be offered, but feeding is optional. Target feed gently when polyps are extended and avoid overfeeding.

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 support consistent coral health.

Give it stable conditions, indirect flow, and adequate spacing from neighbors.
