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: Low to moderate indirect flow
• Placement: Lower to middle reef areas
• Temperament: Semi-aggressive
• Care Level: Moderate

Lighting

Use low to moderate lighting. Acclimate gradually and avoid sudden increases in intensity, which can stress this acan coral.

Flow

Provide low to moderate indirect flow. Gentle, dispersed movement helps keep the fleshy polyps from receiving a constant direct blast.

Placement

Place it in lower to middle reef areas. Start with moderate placement and make changes slowly as the coral adjusts to your aquarium.

Temperament

Allow space from neighboring corals. This semi-aggressive acan coral may sting nearby specimens, so avoid close contact and leave room as it settles.

Feeding

Occasional small meaty foods can be offered, but feeding is optional. Keep portions modest and observe the coral’s response.

General Care

Maintain stable aquarium conditions and make adjustments gradually. Avoid abrupt changes in lighting or water movement, watch for polyp response, and give the coral time to settle after placement or any system change.

Give it stable conditions, indirect flow, and room from nearby corals.
