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

Use low to moderate lighting. Acclimate gradually, especially when moving the coral into brighter areas, and avoid sudden increases in intensity.

Flow

Provide low to moderate indirect flow. Gentle, distributed movement helps keep the coral clear without blasting its fleshy polyps.

Placement

Place it in lower to middle reef areas. Start in a moderate location and allow time to adjust before changing light exposure or water movement.

Temperament

Give this semi-aggressive coral room from nearby corals. Maintain spacing to reduce contact and potential stinging issues as polyps expand.

Feeding

Occasional small meaty foods may be offered, but feeding is optional. Target feed gently when polyps are receptive and avoid excessive food accumulation.

General Care

Maintain stable conditions and watch polyp response after any change. Avoid sudden increases in lighting or water movement, and make adjustments gradually to support consistent acclimation and day-to-day health.

Allow space, steady conditions, and gentle acclimation for reliable placement.
