Flow: Low to moderate varied flow
-

-
Temperament: Peaceful but capable of spreading
-
Care Level: Beginner to Moderate
Lighting
Provide low to moderate lighting. Start with a gentler introduction and observe polyp extension before moving it into brighter areas.
Flow
Use low to moderate varied flow. Gentle, changing circulation helps the polyps move without exposing them to harsh direct flow.
Placement
Place it in lower to middle reef areas. Acclimate gradually, especially when transferring from different lighting or flow conditions.
Temperament
This coral is peaceful toward nearby corals, but it can spread over surrounding rockwork. Leave room for expansion and monitor its boundaries so it does not overtake slower-growing neighbors.
Feeding
Feeding is usually optional. Fine suspended foods may be accepted, but stable reef conditions remain the primary care focus.
General Care
Maintain stable reef conditions and make changes gradually. Watch for consistent polyp extension, adjust placement only when needed, and avoid abrupt shifts in lighting, flow, or other aquarium conditions.
Give it room to spread and avoid placing it in direct, harsh flow.
