Temperament: Aggressive
-
Care Level: Moderate
Lighting
Provide moderate lighting. Acclimate gradually to its intended intensity and watch for consistent polyp extension as it settles into the aquarium.
Flow
Use moderate, indirect, varied flow. Gentle movement is ideal; avoid strong direct flow that can keep the polyps from extending comfortably.
Placement
Place it in lower to middle reef areas. Start with a stable location, allow time to acclimate, and adjust only if its response indicates a need.
Temperament
Give this aggressive coral generous spacing. Torch corals have stinging potential, so keep nearby corals well clear of its extended polyps.
Feeding
Feeding is optional. Occasional meaty foods can be offered when appropriate, while avoiding excessive feeding that can affect overall water quality.
General Care
Maintain stable reef conditions, with particular attention to salinity and alkalinity. Avoid sudden changes, keep placement and flow consistent during acclimation, and observe polyp extension and surrounding coral spacing regularly.
Allow space, stable conditions, and indirect flow for dependable torch coral care.
