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 movement helps keep the coral clear without exposing its fleshy polyps to direct, aggressive water movement.

Placement

Place it in the lower to middle reef areas. Give the specimen time to adjust after placement, and make lighting or flow changes gradually.

Temperament

Allow space from neighboring corals because it is semi-aggressive. Moderate placement and separation help reduce contact with nearby corals and potential stinging issues.

Feeding

Offer occasional small meaty foods if desired. Feeding is optional, so focus first on stable conditions and observe how the coral responds.

General Care

Maintain stable aquarium conditions and observe polyp behavior after changes. Avoid sudden increases in lighting or water movement, and adjust placement carefully if the coral appears stressed or remains poorly expanded.

Stable placement, indirect flow, and adequate spacing support long-term care.
