Quick Care Summary

• Lighting: Moderate lighting
• Flow: Moderate, varied flow
• Placement: Lower to middle reef areas
• Temperament: Semi-aggressive
• Care Level: Moderate to Advanced

Lighting

Provide moderate lighting. Start with a gentler introduction and adjust placement gradually while watching polyp extension and overall response.

Flow

Use moderate, varied flow that keeps polyps moving naturally. Avoid direct blasting flow, which can prevent comfortable extension.

Placement

Place it in lower to middle reef areas with room for full polyp extension. Acclimate gradually to its final light and flow conditions.

Temperament

Allow generous spacing from neighboring corals. This semi-aggressive coral needs room around its extended polyps to reduce contact and potential stinging issues.

Feeding

Offer occasional fine particulate foods when appropriate. This coral benefits from supplemental feeding, especially as part of a consistent reef-care routine.

General Care

Maintain stable reef conditions and observe polyp extension, tissue appearance, and response to placement changes. Avoid stripping the aquarium of all measurable nutrients, and make adjustments gradually rather than changing light, flow, or feeding all at once.

Consistent placement, gentle observation, and stable conditions support long-term care.
