Lighting
Provide moderate lighting and introduce it gradually to its final intensity. Observe polyp extension after acclimation and avoid abrupt lighting changes.
Flow
Use moderate, varied flow that keeps the polyps moving gently. Avoid direct blasting flow, which can prevent comfortable extension or irritate the coral.
Placement
Place it in lower to middle reef areas with open room for full polyp extension. Acclimate gradually and allow space around the frag as it settles.
Temperament
Treat this coral as semi-aggressive and leave adequate spacing from neighboring corals. Its extended polyps need open water space and should not be allowed to contact nearby specimens.
Feeding
Offer occasional fine particulate foods to support this coral. Feed gently in a way that allows particles to reach the polyps without overwhelming them.
General Care
Maintain stable reef conditions and avoid stripping all measurable nutrients from the aquarium. This is a moderate-to-advanced care coral, so monitor its extension and overall response after changes to lighting, flow, feeding, or placement.
Give it stable conditions, gentle movement, and room to extend.
