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 and acclimate gradually to its final intensity. Lower to middle reef areas are appropriate, with observation helping you fine-tune placement.

Flow

Use moderate, indirect, varied flow that moves the tentacles without blasting them. Avoid strong direct flow, which can cause the coral to remain stressed.

Placement

Place it in a lower to middle reef area with secure footing and open space. Acclimate gradually when introducing it to new lighting and water movement.

Temperament

Give this aggressive coral generous spacing from neighboring corals. Its tentacles can sting nearby specimens, so avoid placing it where contact is likely as it expands.

Feeding

Occasional meaty foods may be offered, but feeding is optional. Keep portions modest and observe the coral’s response before making it part of routine care.

General Care

Maintain stable reef conditions, with particular attention to salinity and alkalinity. Avoid sudden changes, monitor tentacle extension and overall appearance, and adjust placement or flow gradually if it appears unsettled.

Steady conditions, indirect flow, and generous spacing support long-term torch coral care.
