Quick Care Summary

• Lighting: Moderate lighting
• Flow: Moderate, indirect and varied flow
• Placement: Lower to middle reef areas
• Temperament: Aggressive
• Care Level: Moderate

Lighting

Provide moderate lighting. Acclimate gradually when introducing it to brighter areas, and observe its response before making further lighting adjustments.

Flow

Use moderate, indirect, varied flow. Gentle movement is preferred; avoid strong direct flow that can continually push or stress the polyps.

Placement

Place it in lower to middle reef areas. Start with a secure position and allow time to adjust before moving it or changing its lighting exposure.

Temperament

Give this aggressive coral generous spacing from neighbors. Torch corals have stinging potential, so keep its polyps well clear of nearby corals and plan for their reach.

Feeding

Occasional meaty foods may be offered, but feeding is optional. Target feed gently when desired, without blasting food or flow directly at the polyps.

General Care

Maintain stable reef conditions, with particular attention to salinity and alkalinity. Avoid sudden changes in flow, lighting, or placement, and monitor polyp extension and overall appearance as it settles in.

A measured acclimation and thoughtful spacing support long-term torch coral care.
