Quick Care Summary

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

Lighting

Provide moderate lighting and acclimate gradually to the intended intensity. Observe expansion as it settles, adjusting placement only if needed after allowing time for acclimation.

Flow

Use moderate, indirect, varied flow. Avoid strong direct flow, which can interfere with comfortable expansion and may irritate the coral.

Placement

Place it in lower to middle reef areas with indirect current. Allow time to acclimate after placement and leave open space for expansion.

Temperament

Provide generous spacing from neighboring corals. Hammer corals are semi-aggressive, can expand beyond their base, and have stinging potential that may damage nearby specimens.

Feeding

Offer occasional meaty foods if desired; feeding is optional. Feed gently when expansion is visible, and avoid overfeeding the aquarium.

General Care

Maintain stable salinity, alkalinity, temperature, and nutrient levels rather than making rapid adjustments. Watch for consistent expansion, keep surrounding space clear, and make gradual placement changes only when observation indicates they are needed.

Stable conditions, indirect flow, and spacing support comfortable expansion.
