Quick Care Summary

• Lighting: Moderate lighting
• Flow: Moderate, indirect and varied flow
• Placement: Lower to middle reef areas
• Temperament: Aggressive
• Care Level: Moderate

Lighting

Provide moderate lighting. Acclimate gradually to its final intensity and watch polyp extension and overall response before making further lighting changes.

Flow

Use moderate, indirect, varied flow. Water movement should keep the polyps moving naturally without blasting the coral with strong direct current.

Placement

Place it in the lower to middle reef areas. Allow time to settle after introduction, then adjust placement only if its response indicates a gentler or more suitable position is needed.

Temperament

Give this aggressive coral generous spacing from nearby corals. Its tentacles can sting neighbors, so plan its location with room for extension and avoid close placement beside other specimens.

Feeding

Occasional meaty foods can be offered but are optional. Target feed gently when the polyps are extended, and avoid excessive feeding or forceful flow during feeding.

General Care

Maintain stable reef conditions, especially salinity and alkalinity, and avoid sudden changes. Observe polyp extension, tissue condition, and neighboring corals regularly. Consistent lighting, indirect flow, and adequate spacing help support long-term placement.

Acclimate patiently and give its flowing tentacles room to move safely.
