Quick Care Summary

• Lighting: Low to moderate lighting
• Flow: Moderate indirect flow
• Placement: Lower to middle reef areas
• Temperament: Allow space from neighboring corals
• Care Level: Moderate

Lighting

Provide low to moderate lighting. Start with gentler exposure during acclimation, then observe the coral’s response before making gradual placement or lighting adjustments.

Flow

Use moderate indirect flow. Water movement should keep the area refreshed without directing aggressive flow across the coral’s fleshy tissue.

Placement

Place it in lower to middle reef areas. Acclimate gradually and choose a position where it can remain settled without receiving forceful, direct current.

Temperament

Allow conservative space from neighboring corals. Exact aggression can vary by coral group, so give this plate coral room and avoid close contact with surrounding specimens.

Feeding

Feeding is optional. Occasional appropriately sized coral food may be offered when practical, while avoiding excess food accumulation around the coral.

General Care

Maintain stable reef conditions and make changes gradually. Watch tissue condition, placement response, and flow exposure, especially after introducing the coral or adjusting lighting and circulation. Avoid direct aggressive flow across fleshy tissue.

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