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 gradually to the final intensity. Watch polyp extension and overall response as the coral adjusts to its placement.

Flow

Use moderate, indirect, varied flow. Gentle changing movement supports natural polyp motion, while strong direct flow should be avoided because it can irritate the coral.

Placement

Place this coral in lower to middle reef areas. Begin with indirect water movement and make any placement adjustments gradually after acclimation.

Temperament

Allow generous spacing from neighboring corals. Torch corals are aggressive and have stinging potential, so keep their tentacles clear of nearby specimens.

Feeding

Offer occasional meaty foods if desired. Feeding is optional; introduce any food carefully and use options appropriate for a torch coral.

General Care

Maintain stable reef conditions, especially salinity and alkalinity, and avoid sudden changes. Observe polyp extension and tissue condition regularly, particularly after placement, maintenance, or other adjustments, and allow time for the coral to settle.

Provide stable care, indirect flow, and generous space from neighboring corals.
