Quick Care Summary

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

Lighting

Provide moderate lighting and acclimate it gradually to its intended intensity. Observe polyp response during adjustment rather than making abrupt lighting changes.

Flow

Use moderate, indirect, varied flow that keeps the polyps moving gently. Avoid strong direct flow, which can prevent comfortable extension and irritate the coral.

Placement

Place it in lower to middle reef areas with room around it. Allow time to adjust after introduction, and avoid repeatedly moving it once it is responding well.

Temperament

Give this aggressive coral generous spacing from nearby corals. Torch corals have stinging potential, so keep its polyps clear of neighbors and account for their movement in changing flow.

Feeding

Feeding is optional, but occasional meaty foods can be offered. Target feed gently when polyps are extended, and avoid overfeeding.

General Care

Maintain stable reef conditions, especially salinity and alkalinity, and avoid sudden changes. Watch for consistent polyp extension and adjust placement, flow, or lighting gradually when needed. Keep nearby corals at a safe distance as the torch settles in.

Stable conditions and careful spacing support long-term torch coral care.
