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 and avoid abrupt increases, which can keep the coral from opening and expanding normally.

Flow

Use low, indirect flow. Keep direct, forceful current off the disc so it can expand without being continually pushed or folded.

Placement

Place it in lower reef areas or protected rockwork. Start in a sheltered location, then observe its expansion before considering any adjustment.

Temperament

Give it room to spread over time. It is generally peaceful, but leave space around neighboring corals to manage its gradual expansion.

Feeding

Feeding is usually optional. Occasional small foods may be accepted, but stable conditions and appropriate placement remain the main priorities.

General Care

Maintain stable reef conditions and watch for normal disc expansion after placement. Make lighting changes slowly, avoid strong direct flow, and adjust its location only when observation indicates the current spot is unsuitable.

A practical soft coral choice for lower-flow, protected reef placement.
