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

Provide low to moderate lighting. Acclimate gradually to brighter conditions, as abrupt lighting increases can stress the coral and affect normal expansion.

Flow

Use low, indirect flow. Position it away from direct current so the disc can expand normally without being continually pushed or folded.

Placement

Place it in lower reef areas or on protected rockwork. Start in a sheltered location and adjust only if needed after observing its response.

Temperament

Allow room for spreading. Mushroom corals are generally peaceful, but they can expand into nearby space over time, so avoid crowding neighboring corals.

Feeding

Feeding is usually optional. It may accept occasional small foods, but stable conditions and suitable placement remain the main priorities.

General Care

Maintain stable aquarium conditions and observe expansion after placement or changes. Avoid abrupt increases in light and direct flow, and give the coral time to settle before making further adjustments.

Give it protected placement, gentle flow, and time to acclimate.
