This is a WYSIWYG coral, meaning the coral shown in the photo is the exact piece you will receive.

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 and acclimate gradually to the final intensity. Observe extension during adjustment, and avoid abrupt lighting changes while the coral settles into its placement.

Flow

Use moderate, indirect, varied flow. Aim for gentle movement around the polyps, and avoid strong direct flow that can prevent comfortable extension.

Placement

Place this torch coral in lower to middle reef areas. Begin with open space around it, then allow it time to adjust before making further placement changes.

Temperament

Give it generous spacing from nearby corals. Torch corals are aggressive and can sting neighboring specimens, so account for their reach as the polyps extend.

Feeding

Offer occasional meaty foods if desired. Feeding is optional; deliver food gently and avoid using strong flow across the polyps during feeding.

General Care

Maintain stable reef conditions, especially salinity and alkalinity, and avoid sudden changes. Regularly observe polyp extension and overall response to lighting, flow, and placement, adjusting gradually when needed rather than making rapid changes.

Stable conditions, indirect flow, and generous spacing support long-term placement.
