Quick Care Summary

• Lighting: Low to moderate lighting
• Flow: Moderate, varied flow
• Placement: Lower to middle reef areas with growth room
• Temperament: Generally peaceful but can overgrow neighbors
• Care Level: Moderate

Lighting

Use low to moderate lighting. Start with gentler exposure during acclimation, then observe coloration and extension before making gradual adjustments.

Flow

Provide moderate, varied flow. Alternating water movement helps keep the surface clear without concentrating force on one area.

Placement

Place it in lower to middle reef areas on a stable mounting surface. Leave open rockwork around the edges so encrusting growth has room to spread.

Temperament

Allow spacing from nearby corals. It is generally peaceful, but its encrusting growth can overgrow neighboring corals if it reaches their space.

Feeding

Rely primarily on lighting for support, with fine coral foods offered optionally. Feed lightly and avoid allowing excess food to collect on the coral.

General Care

Maintain consistent reef conditions and avoid abrupt changes while it establishes new growth. Check that the mounting surface remains secure, keep detritus from settling, and monitor nearby corals as its encrusting edge expands.

Give it stable conditions and room to develop across its mounting surface.
