Its WYSIWYG presentation lets buyers see the individual coral being offered.

This is a WYSIWYG coral, meaning the coral shown in the photo is the exact piece you will receive.

Quick Care Summary

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

Lighting

Provide low to moderate lighting. Begin on the lower side during acclimation, then adjust gradually only if the coral responds well to its placement.

Flow

Use moderate indirect flow. Water movement should keep the surface clear without blasting the coral or causing strong direct tissue movement.

Placement

Place it in lower to middle reef areas. Acclimate gradually to its final light and flow, and avoid frequent moves once it has settled.

Temperament

Allow generous spacing from neighboring corals. This Favia-type brain coral is aggressive and may extend nighttime sweeper or feeding tentacles that can sting nearby corals.

Feeding

Feeding is optional. Occasional small meaty foods may be offered when feeding tentacles are visible, while avoiding excess food or waste buildup.

General Care

Maintain stable conditions and make changes gradually rather than repeatedly changing placement, lighting, or flow. Observe tissue response, nighttime tentacle extension, and nearby corals so spacing and water movement can be adjusted when needed.

Give this coral a stable location and adequate space to settle in.
