Its care profile favors lower placement, low to moderate lighting, and calm indirect water movement.

This is a WYSIWYG coral, meaning the coral shown in the photo is the exact piece you will receive.

Quick Care Summary

• Lighting: Low to moderate lighting
• Flow: Low, indirect flow
• Placement: Lower reef areas or protected rockwork
• Temperament: Generally peaceful but can spread
• Care Level: Beginner to Moderate

Lighting

Use low to moderate lighting. Acclimate gradually to any increase in intensity, as abrupt lighting changes can limit normal disc expansion.

Flow

Provide low, indirect flow. Avoid strong direct current, which can keep the disc from expanding normally and may cause unnecessary stress.

Placement

Place it in lower reef areas or protected rockwork. Start in a sheltered location and adjust only after observing normal expansion under the available light and flow.

Temperament

Give it room to spread over time. Mushroom corals are generally peaceful, but nearby corals should have space so expansion does not create contact issues.

Feeding

Feeding is usually optional. It may accept occasional small foods, but stable reef conditions and appropriate placement remain the main care priorities.

General Care

Maintain stable aquarium conditions and watch for normal disc expansion. Make lighting and flow changes gradually, especially after placement, and avoid directing pumps at the coral. Observe surrounding corals as it settles and spreads.

Keep conditions gentle and stable for reliable day-to-day care.
