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. Start with a gentler exposure during acclimation, then observe the coral’s response before making gradual adjustments.
Flow
Use moderate, indirect, varied flow. The tentacles should move naturally without being blasted by a strong direct current.
Placement
Place it in lower to middle reef areas. Allow time to acclimate after introduction and secure the frag where its tentacles have open room to extend.
Temperament
Give this aggressive coral generous spacing from neighbors. Torch corals can sting nearby corals, so keep it clear of other specimens and account for tentacle reach.
Feeding
Occasional meaty foods may be offered, but feeding is optional. Target feed gently only when the coral is open and avoid overfeeding.
General Care
Maintain stable reef conditions, with particular attention to salinity and alkalinity. Avoid sudden changes in lighting, flow, or water chemistry, and observe tentacle extension and overall response after any adjustment.
Provide room, stable conditions, and indirect flow for long-term torch coral care.
