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

Provide low to moderate lighting. Start with subdued exposure and increase only gradually, since abrupt lighting increases can keep the disc from expanding normally.

Flow

Use low, indirect flow. Gentle water movement helps keep the disc comfortable without the strong direct current that can prevent normal expansion.

Placement

Place it in lower reef areas or protected rockwork. Allow time to acclimate before changing its position, light exposure, or flow pattern.

Temperament

Keep it spaced from nearby corals as it settles and spreads. It is generally peaceful, but expansion over surrounding rockwork can bring it into contact with neighbors.

Feeding

Feeding is usually optional. It may accept occasional small foods, but consistent low-to-moderate light and gentle flow remain the primary care focus.

General Care

Maintain stable aquarium conditions and observe disc expansion after introduction. Avoid sudden changes to lighting or circulation, and adjust placement if direct flow causes the disc to remain contracted or unable to expand normally.

A practical soft coral choice for gently lit, lower-flow reef areas.
