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. Acclimate gradually and avoid abrupt increases, which can keep the coral from adjusting comfortably.

Flow

Provide low, indirect flow. Direct or forceful current can prevent the disc from expanding normally.

Placement

Place it in lower reef areas or protected rockwork. Start in a sheltered location and adjust only after observing its response.

Temperament

Keep it with adequate room to spread. Mushroom corals are generally peaceful, but expansion can bring them into contact with nearby corals over time.

Feeding

Feeding is usually optional. It may accept occasional small foods, but stable conditions and suitable placement remain the priority.

General Care

Maintain stable aquarium conditions and observe disc expansion after introduction or any adjustment. Make changes gradually, especially with lighting and flow, and avoid aiming a pump directly at the coral.

A sheltered, low-flow position supports natural expansion and straightforward long-term care.
