Quick Care Summary

• Lighting: Moderate lighting
• Flow: Moderate, indirect and varied flow
• Placement: Lower to middle reef areas
• Temperament: Aggressive
• Care Level: Moderate

Lighting

Provide moderate lighting. Acclimate gradually when moving it into brighter conditions, and avoid abrupt lighting changes while it settles into the reef.

Flow

Use moderate, indirect, varied flow. Avoid strong direct flow, which can be unsuitable for a torch coral and may prevent comfortable extension.

Placement

Place it in lower to middle reef areas. Start with a secure location that receives indirect movement, then allow time to adjust before making further changes.

Temperament

Give it generous spacing from nearby corals. Torch corals have stinging potential and are considered aggressive, so keep neighboring corals beyond reach.

Feeding

Occasional meaty foods may be offered, but feeding is optional. Target feed gently when desired and avoid creating excess waste in the aquarium.

General Care

Maintain stable reef conditions, with particular attention to salinity and alkalinity. Avoid sudden changes, monitor its response after placement or adjustments, and make corrections gradually rather than changing several conditions at once.

Provide stable care, indirect flow, and ample space for long-term placement.
