Quick Care Summary

• Lighting: Low to moderate lighting
• Flow: Low to moderate indirect flow
• Placement: Lower to middle reef areas
• Temperament: Semi-aggressive
• Care Level: Moderate

Lighting

Provide low to moderate lighting. Acclimate gradually and avoid sudden increases in intensity to help the coral adjust comfortably.

Flow

Use low to moderate indirect flow. Gentle, dispersed movement helps keep the fleshy polyps clear without exposing them to direct, aggressive current.

Placement

Place it in lower to middle reef areas with moderate spacing from nearby corals. Start conservatively and adjust placement gradually as it settles in.

Temperament

Allow room around this semi-aggressive coral. Maintain spacing from neighboring corals to reduce contact and potential stinging as its polyps expand.

Feeding

Occasional small meaty foods are optional. Target feeding can be offered when practical, but stable conditions remain the foundation of routine care.

General Care

Maintain stable aquarium conditions and observe polyp response after changes. Avoid sudden increases in lighting or water movement, and make adjustments gradually rather than moving the coral repeatedly.

Give it stable conditions, indirect flow, and adequate space to settle.
