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. Start with gentler exposure during acclimation, then make gradual adjustments only after the coral has settled into its placement.

Flow

Provide moderate indirect flow. Water movement should keep debris from settling without directing a strong stream onto the coral’s fleshy tissue.

Placement

Place it in lower to middle reef areas. Acclimate gradually and avoid frequent moves, as stable placement and steady light intensity are preferable.

Temperament

Allow generous space from neighboring corals. This aggressive Favia-type brain coral can extend nighttime sweeper or feeding tentacles, so nearby specimens should remain out of reach.

Feeding

Feeding is optional, but occasional small meaty foods may be offered. Target feeding can be timed when feeding tentacles are visible.

General Care

Maintain stable reef conditions and observe the coral after any change in lighting, flow, or placement. Gradual acclimation is preferable to abrupt adjustments, and keeping the surrounding area clear helps prevent contact with nearby corals.

Give it stable conditions, indirect flow, and room to extend tentacles.
