Placement: Lower to middle reef areas
-
Temperament: Aggressive
-
Care Level: Moderate
Lighting
Provide moderate lighting. Acclimate gradually to its intended intensity and observe its response before making further lighting changes.
Flow
Use moderate, indirect, varied flow. Water movement should gently move the tentacles without blasting the coral with a strong direct stream.
Placement
Place it in lower to middle reef areas. Begin with a secure position, allow time to adjust, and relocate only if observation indicates the placement is unsuitable.
Temperament
Allow generous spacing from nearby corals. Torch corals are aggressive and have stinging potential, so avoid placing it where extended tentacles can reach other specimens.
Feeding
Occasional meaty foods may be offered, but feeding is optional. Keep offerings modest and avoid relying on feeding to compensate for unstable conditions.
General Care
Maintain stable reef conditions, with particular attention to salinity and alkalinity. Avoid sudden changes in lighting, flow, or placement, and regularly observe tentacle extension and overall response as the coral settles in.
Give it room, stable conditions, and indirect movement for best day-to-day care.
