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 when moving it into brighter areas, and observe polyp extension as it settles into its placement.

Flow

Use moderate, indirect, varied flow that keeps the polyps moving gently. Avoid strong direct flow, which can prevent comfortable extension.

Placement

Place it in lower to middle reef areas with secure footing and adequate open space. Allow time to acclimate before making further placement changes.

Temperament

Give this aggressive coral generous spacing from neighboring corals. Its tentacles have stinging potential, so avoid placing it where contact with other corals is likely.

Feeding

Occasional meaty feeding is optional. If offered, feed gently and avoid using flow strong enough to blow food away from the polyps.

General Care

Maintain stable reef conditions, with particular attention to salinity and alkalinity, and avoid sudden changes. Check polyp extension and surrounding spacing regularly, adjusting flow or placement gradually if needed.

Plan its placement carefully and leave room for its tentacles to extend.
