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 to prevent sudden light increases, and observe polyp response as it settles into the aquarium.

Flow

Use low to moderate indirect flow. Gentle, dispersed movement helps keep the coral clear without exposing its fleshy polyps to direct, aggressive current.

Placement

Place it in lower to middle reef areas with moderate placement in mind. Start lower during acclimation, then adjust only gradually if observation supports it.

Temperament

Allow space from neighboring corals because this semi-aggressive LPS coral may sting nearby specimens. Avoid crowding and leave room for its fleshy polyps to extend.

Feeding

Occasional small meaty foods are optional. Target feeding can be offered when practical, while maintaining clean, stable aquarium conditions.

General Care

Maintain stable conditions and make changes slowly. Avoid sudden increases in lighting or water movement, especially during acclimation. Regular observation of polyp extension and tissue condition can help guide placement and flow adjustments.

Give it stable conditions, indirect flow, and room from nearby corals.
