This is a WYSIWYG coral, meaning the coral shown in the photo is the exact piece you will receive.

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 in gentler light and acclimate gradually if increasing intensity, avoiding abrupt changes that can stress this Favia-type brain coral.

Flow

Use moderate indirect flow. Water movement should keep the coral clear of debris without blasting its fleshy polyps; avoid strong direct flow.

Placement

Place it in lower to middle reef areas. Let the coral settle after introduction, and make placement or lighting adjustments gradually rather than moving it frequently.

Temperament

Give it ample space from nearby corals. This aggressive LPS coral can extend nighttime sweeper or feeding tentacles, so avoid placing susceptible neighbors within reach.

Feeding

Offer occasional small meaty foods if desired. Feeding is optional, but target feeding after lights dim may align with visible feeding-tentacle activity.

General Care

Maintain stable aquarium conditions and observe the coral during acclimation. Consistent lighting, indirect flow, and placement are preferable to frequent changes. Watch for nighttime tentacle extension and adjust spacing before it can contact nearby corals.

Stable care and thoughtful spacing help this Favia settle in well.
