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. Begin with a gentler position during acclimation, then adjust placement gradually while observing its response.

Flow

Use moderate, indirect, varied flow. Avoid strong direct flow, which can be unsuitable for the coral’s fleshy tissue.

Placement

Place it in lower to middle reef areas. Acclimate gradually and choose a secure location where it can receive indirect movement.

Temperament

Allow generous spacing from neighboring corals. Torch corals are aggressive and have stinging potential, so keep their reach in mind when planning placement.

Feeding

Occasional meaty foods can be offered, but feeding is optional. Keep portions modest and observe how the coral responds.

General Care

Maintain stable reef conditions, with particular attention to salinity and alkalinity. Avoid sudden changes in light, flow, or water chemistry, and monitor the coral regularly after any adjustment.

Give it stable conditions, indirect flow, and ample space from neighbors.
