Dragon Soul Favia Coral - Care Requirements

Dragon Soul Favia Coral is a Favia-type brain large-polyp stony coral with a moderate care profile. This WYSIWYG Favia coral is suited to reef keepers planning a lower-to-middle placement, moderate indirect flow, and consistent conditions. Its LPS care needs center on careful acclimation, stable placement, and adequate room from nearby corals.

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

Use low to moderate lighting. Begin with a gentler position and increase exposure gradually only after the coral has adjusted to its placement.

Flow

Provide moderate indirect flow that moves water around the coral without blasting it. Avoid strong direct flow, which can irritate its fleshy tissue.

Placement

Place it in the lower to middle reef areas. Acclimate gradually to both light and flow, then avoid frequent moves once it has settled.

Temperament

Allow generous spacing from neighboring corals. This aggressive Favia-type brain coral can extend nighttime sweeper or feeding tentacles that may sting nearby specimens.

Feeding

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

General Care

Maintain stable conditions and observe its response after introduction. Gradual acclimation is preferable to sudden changes in lighting, flow, or placement; adjust slowly and give the coral space to settle between changes.

Plan its placement and spacing carefully for a more manageable long-term reef arrangement.
