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. Acclimate gradually and avoid abrupt increases, which can prevent the coral from settling comfortably.

Flow

Provide low, indirect flow. Water movement should be gentle enough for the disc to expand normally rather than being pushed or folded by direct current.

Placement

Place it in lower reef areas or protected rockwork. Start in a sheltered location and adjust only after observing normal expansion and response.

Temperament

Expect generally peaceful behavior, but allow room for spreading. Give it space from neighboring corals so expansion or gradual spread does not create unwanted contact.

Feeding

Feeding is usually optional. Occasional small foods may be accepted, but stable conditions and suitable placement remain the primary care focus.

General Care

Maintain stable aquarium conditions and observe the disc’s expansion after introduction. Avoid sudden lighting changes and direct flow, then make adjustments gradually if the coral remains contracted or does not expand normally.

A sheltered placement and gentle conditions support a smooth introduction.
