Quick Care Summary

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

Lighting

Provide low to moderate lighting. Acclimate gradually, especially when moving it into brighter conditions, to avoid sudden light increases.

Flow

Use low to moderate indirect flow. Gentle, dispersed movement helps keep the fleshy polyps from receiving direct, aggressive water flow.

Placement

Place it in lower to middle reef areas with moderate spacing from nearby corals. Allow time to adjust before changing its location or lighting.

Temperament

Give this semi-aggressive coral room from neighboring corals. Maintain spacing to reduce the risk of contact and stinging between specimens.

Feeding

Offer occasional small meaty foods if desired. Feeding is optional, but avoid overfeeding and keep conditions stable afterward.

General Care

Maintain stable conditions and observe polyp response as lighting and flow are adjusted. Avoid sudden increases in water movement or light, and make changes gradually so the coral can acclimate.

Provide steady care, indirect flow, and room from nearby corals.
