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. Acclimate gradually to the intended intensity, especially when moving it from a different system or lighting schedule.

Flow

Use moderate, indirect, varied flow. Gentle movement is preferred; avoid strong direct flow that can continually batter the fleshy tentacles.

Placement

Place it in lower to middle reef areas. Start in a secure location, allow time to adjust, and relocate only if its response suggests the position is unsuitable.

Temperament

Allow generous space from neighboring corals. Torch corals are aggressive and have stinging potential, so keep their reach in mind as tentacles extend and move with current.

Feeding

Feeding is optional. Occasional meaty foods may be offered, with care taken not to overfeed or disturb the coral during feeding.

General Care

Maintain stable reef conditions, with particular attention to salinity and alkalinity, and avoid sudden changes. Observe tentacle extension and overall response after adjustments to lighting, flow, placement, or routine maintenance.

Give it stable conditions, room to extend, and indirect varied flow.
