Dragon Soul Favia Coral - Care Requirements

Dragon Soul Favia Coral is a Favia-type brain large-polyp stony coral with an aggressive temperament. This LPS coral is suited to a lower or middle reef position with measured light, indirect water movement, and room around its edges. Its care is best approached with gradual changes and consistent conditions.

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 gentler exposure during acclimation, then adjust slowly rather than making abrupt increases in intensity.

Flow

Provide moderate indirect flow that keeps the area refreshed without blasting the coral. Avoid strong direct flow, which can irritate its fleshy tissue.

Placement

Place it in lower to middle reef areas and acclimate gradually to its final position. Choose a stable spot to avoid repeated moves or major changes in light exposure.

Temperament

Allow ample space from neighboring corals. This coral is aggressive and may extend nighttime sweeper or feeding tentacles that can sting nearby specimens.

Feeding

Feeding is optional, but occasional small meaty foods can be offered when feeding tentacles are visible. Keep portions modest and remove uneaten food.

General Care

Maintain stable conditions and observe the coral after any adjustment. Gradual acclimation to lighting and placement is preferable to frequent changes, and steady indirect flow helps keep debris from settling around the tissue.

Give it stable placement, indirect flow, and enough room from nearby corals.
