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. Begin with a gradual acclimation period and observe expansion and response before making placement or lighting changes.
Flow
Use moderate, indirect, varied flow. Avoid strong direct flow, which can limit comfortable expansion and irritate the coral’s fleshy tissue.
Placement
Place it in lower to middle reef areas. Allow room around the coral for full expansion, and acclimate gradually after introducing it to the aquarium.
Temperament
Give this semi-aggressive hammer coral generous spacing from neighboring corals. It has stinging potential, especially when expanded, so avoid placing it where it can contact nearby specimens.
Feeding
Occasional meaty foods may be offered, but feeding is optional. Target feeding can be done carefully when the coral is expanded.
General Care
Maintain stable salinity, alkalinity, temperature, and nutrient levels rather than making rapid adjustments. Watch its expansion, positioning, and response to flow and light, then make changes gradually when needed.
Stable conditions and thoughtful spacing support consistent hammer coral care.
