Quick Care Summary

• Lighting: Low to moderate lighting
• Flow: Moderate indirect flow
• Placement: Lower to middle reef areas
• Temperament: Aggressive
• Care Level: Moderate

Lighting

Provide low to moderate lighting. Start with gentler intensity during acclimation, then observe the coral’s response before making gradual adjustments to placement or lighting.

Flow

Use moderate indirect flow that keeps the coral clear without blasting its fleshy tissue. Avoid strong direct flow, which can prevent comfortable extension and make acclimation more difficult.

Placement

Place it in the lower to middle reef areas. Allow time to settle after placement, and make changes gradually rather than moving it frequently or abruptly increasing intensity.

Temperament

Give this aggressive Favia ample room from neighboring corals. Nighttime sweeper or feeding tentacles can reach beyond its visible edge, so spacing helps prevent contact and stinging damage.

Feeding

Offer occasional small meaty foods if desired. Feeding is optional, but target feeding may be done carefully when feeding tentacles are visible.

General Care

Maintain stable conditions and make gradual changes to light, flow, and placement. Watch for normal tissue extension and response after acclimation, especially at night when sweeper or feeding tentacles may emerge.

Provide stable care, indirect flow, and sufficient spacing for long-term placement.
