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 lighting increases.

Flow

Use low to moderate indirect flow. Gentle, indirect movement helps avoid stressing the fleshy polyps; avoid direct aggressive flow.

Placement

Place it in a lower to middle reef area with moderate placement in mind. Allow time to adjust before changing its position or water movement.

Temperament

Give this semi-aggressive coral room from neighboring corals. Leave spacing for potential stinging and avoid placing it where nearby corals can crowd its polyps.

Feeding

Occasional small meaty foods are optional. Target feed lightly when desired, while avoiding excess food accumulation around the coral.

General Care

Maintain stable conditions and observe polyp response after any adjustment. Make changes gradually, particularly to lighting and water movement, and keep the surrounding area clear of close coral contact.

Allow a steady acclimation period and adjust only when the coral’s response calls for it.
