Dragon Soul Favia Coral - Care Requirements
Dragon Soul Favia Coral is a Favia-type brain large-polyp stony coral with LPS coral care requirements. This Favia coral is offered with a moderate-care profile for reef aquariums. Its care is centered on low to moderate light, indirect water movement, gradual acclimation, and clear separation from surrounding corals.
This is a WYSIWYG coral, meaning the coral shown in the photo is the exact piece you will receive.
Quick Care Summary
-
Lighting: Low to moderate lighting
-
Flow: Moderate indirect flow
-
Placement: Lower to middle reef areas
-
Temperament: Aggressive
-
Care Level: Moderate
Lighting
Use low to moderate lighting, then acclimate gradually to the chosen intensity. Avoid abrupt lighting changes, and observe the coral after adjustments before making further changes.
Flow
Provide moderate indirect flow that moves water across the coral without blasting it. Avoid strong direct flow, which is not appropriate for this Favia-type brain coral.
Placement
Place it in lower to middle reef areas and acclimate it gradually after introduction. Keep placement consistent rather than repeatedly moving it between locations or changing intensity.
Temperament
Allow generous spacing from nearby corals. This aggressive Favia-type brain coral can extend nighttime sweeper or feeding tentacles, so nearby specimens should remain outside their reach.
Feeding
Offer occasional small meaty foods if desired. Feeding is optional; use modest portions and observe the coral’s response rather than treating supplemental feeding as required.
General Care
Maintain stable conditions and make changes gradually. Monitor tissue condition, feeding-tentacle behavior, and response to light and flow, then correct placement or intensity slowly instead of making frequent, abrupt adjustments when needed.
Give it stable placement, indirect movement, and room from neighbors.
