Quick Care Summary

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

Lighting

Use low to moderate lighting, and acclimate gradually to the final intensity. Avoid sudden lighting changes once the coral has settled.

Flow

Provide moderate indirect flow that keeps the coral clear without forceful contact. Avoid strong direct flow, which can irritate its fleshy tissue.

Placement

Place it in lower to middle reef areas with room around the coral. Let it settle after placement rather than frequently changing its position or intensity.

Temperament

Allow generous spacing from neighboring corals because this is an aggressive coral. Nighttime sweeper or feeding tentacles may extend beyond the coral and can reach nearby specimens.

Feeding

Offer occasional small meaty foods if desired. Feeding is optional; use targeted portions to limit excess food around the coral.

General Care

Maintain stable conditions and make adjustments gradually. Observe tissue response and tentacle extension after acclimation, and reassess placement, lighting, or flow only when needed. Keep nearby corals at a safe distance as the coral settles.

Stable care, indirect flow, and spacing support this Favia over time.
