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, and avoid sudden increases in intensity.

Flow

Use low to moderate indirect flow. Gentle, dispersed movement helps keep debris from settling without blasting the fleshy polyps.

Placement

Place it in the lower to middle reef areas. Start in a moderate location and allow time to adjust before making changes to lighting or water movement.

Temperament

Give this semi-aggressive coral adequate spacing from nearby corals. Leave room for its fleshy polyps and avoid placing it where contact with neighbors may occur.

Feeding

Offer occasional small meaty foods if desired. Feeding is optional, and portions should be small enough to avoid leaving excess food in the aquarium.

General Care

Maintain stable conditions and observe polyp response after any adjustment. Avoid sudden changes in lighting or flow, and make placement changes gradually rather than repeatedly moving the specimen.

Consistent placement and gentle acclimation support reliable long-term care.
