Quick Care Summary

• Lighting: Moderate lighting
• Flow: Moderate, indirect and varied flow
• Placement: Lower to middle reef areas
• Temperament: Semi-aggressive
• Care Level: Moderate

Lighting

Provide moderate lighting. Acclimate gradually to its final intensity and watch for steady, full expansion as it settles into the aquarium.

Flow

Use moderate, indirect, varied flow. Water movement should gently move the tentacles without blasting the coral with a strong direct current.

Placement

Place it in lower to middle reef areas. Give the coral time to acclimate, and choose a secure location where its tentacles can expand freely.

Temperament

Allow generous spacing from nearby corals. This semi-aggressive hammer coral can extend tentacles and sting neighbors, especially as it expands or changes position in the flow.

Feeding

Occasional meaty foods may be offered, but feeding is optional. Target feeding can be done gently when tentacles are extended.

General Care

Maintain stable salinity, alkalinity, temperature, and nutrient levels rather than making rapid adjustments. Observe expansion and tissue condition regularly, then make gradual changes if the coral shows signs of stress.

Provide steady conditions, indirect flow, and adequate space for reliable long-term care.
