Quick Care Summary

• Lighting: Low to moderate lighting
• Flow: Low, indirect flow
• Placement: Lower reef areas or protected rockwork
• Temperament: Generally peaceful but can spread
• Care Level: Beginner to Moderate

Lighting

Use low to moderate lighting, starting gently after introduction. Avoid abrupt increases in intensity, which can keep the coral from adjusting and expanding normally.

Flow

Provide low, indirect flow that lightly moves water around the disc. Avoid strong direct flow, as it can prevent normal expansion.

Placement

Place it in lower reef areas or on protected rockwork. Acclimate gradually to its chosen lighting and flow conditions before making further adjustments.

Temperament

Allow room for it to spread over time. It is generally peaceful, but give neighboring corals space so expansion does not create unwanted contact.

Feeding

Feeding is usually optional. Occasional small foods may be accepted, but stable placement, suitable lighting, and gentle flow remain the main priorities.

General Care

Maintain stable reef conditions and observe disc expansion after placement or changes in lighting and flow. Make adjustments gradually, especially when moving the coral or increasing light exposure. Avoid aiming circulation directly at the disc.

A practical choice for protected, lower-light reef areas.
