Quick Care Summary

• Lighting: Low to moderate lighting
• Flow: Moderate, varied flow
• Placement: Lower to middle reef areas with growth room
• Temperament: Generally peaceful but can overgrow neighbors
• Care Level: Moderate

Lighting

Provide low to moderate lighting. Begin in gentler light and acclimate gradually, watching for consistent extension and coloration before moving it higher if needed.

Flow

Use moderate, varied water flow. Alternating movement helps keep the coral clear of detritus without concentrating constant force on one area.

Placement

Place it in the lower to middle reef on a stable mounting surface. Leave open rock around the frag so its encrusting growth has room to spread.

Temperament

Allow space from nearby corals. It is generally peaceful, but expanding encrustation can overgrow neighboring corals when colonies are placed too closely.

Feeding

Rely primarily on appropriate lighting for support, with fine coral foods offered optionally. Feed lightly and avoid allowing excess food to settle on the coral.

General Care

Maintain consistent reef conditions and inspect the mounting area regularly as new growth establishes. Keep the surface secure, avoid abrupt changes in lighting or flow, and adjust placement if detritus repeatedly collects nearby.

Plan its placement early to give the encrusting base room to develop.
