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 conservatively during acclimation, then observe its response before making gradual lighting adjustments.

Flow

Use moderate indirect flow. Water movement should keep the coral clear without directing aggressive flow across its fleshy tissue.

Placement

Place it in lower to middle reef areas. Begin with a secure position and acclimate gradually to its final light and flow exposure.

Temperament

Allow conservative space from neighboring corals. Exact aggression can vary by coral group, so avoid close contact and monitor nearby corals as it settles.

Feeding

Feeding is optional. Occasional appropriately sized coral food can be offered, while maintaining good overall reef husbandry.

General Care

Maintain stable reef conditions and observe the coral regularly for its response to placement, light, and flow. Make changes gradually rather than shifting conditions quickly, and keep direct, forceful water movement off fleshy tissue.

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