Quick Care Summary

• Lighting: Low to moderate lighting
• Flow: Low, indirect flow
• Placement: Lower reef areas or protected rockwork
• Temperament: Generally peaceful but can spread
• Care Level: Beginner to Moderate

Lighting

Use low to moderate lighting. Start with gentler exposure and avoid abrupt increases, which can keep the disc from expanding normally.

Flow

Provide low, indirect flow. Position it away from direct currents so the disc can expand naturally rather than being constantly pushed or folded.

Placement

Place it in lower reef areas or protected rockwork. Acclimate gradually to its lighting and flow conditions, then watch for normal disc expansion.

Temperament

Expect generally peaceful behavior, but allow room for it to spread. Give nearby corals space and monitor its expansion as it settles into the aquarium.

Feeding

Feeding is usually optional. It may accept occasional small foods, but stable conditions and appropriate placement remain the main priorities.

General Care

Maintain stable aquarium conditions and observe the disc regularly. Avoid sudden lighting changes and direct flow, especially if expansion appears limited. Make placement adjustments gradually, allowing time to respond between changes.

A practical soft coral choice for protected, lower-energy reef placement.
