Quick Care Summary
-
Lighting: Low to moderate lighting
-
Flow: Low to moderate varied flow
-
Placement: Lower to middle reef areas
-
Temperament: Peaceful but capable of spreading
-
Care Level: Beginner to Moderate
Lighting
Provide low to moderate lighting. Start under gentler light during acclimation, then adjust placement gradually based on polyp extension and overall response.
Flow
Use low to moderate varied flow. Gentle, changing movement helps the polyps move naturally while avoiding harsh direct flow.
Placement
Place it in lower to middle reef areas. Allow time to acclimate before making changes, and secure the specimen where its spreading growth can be managed.
Temperament
It is generally peaceful, but it can spread across nearby rockwork. Give it a defined area and monitor expansion so it does not encroach on neighboring corals.
Feeding
Feeding is usually optional, though fine suspended foods may be accepted. Maintain normal reef feeding practices and observe its response.
General Care
Maintain stable reef conditions and avoid abrupt changes in lighting, flow, or placement. Watch for polyp extension after acclimation, keep direct flow gentle, and plan ahead for spreading growth as the colony establishes.
A practical soft coral choice for lower-to-middle reef placement.
