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

Provide low to moderate lighting. Acclimate gradually to any increase in intensity, as abrupt lighting changes can stress the coral and affect normal expansion.

Flow

Use low, indirect flow. Avoid strong or direct current, which can keep the disc from expanding normally and make placement less suitable.

Placement

Place it in lower reef areas or on protected rockwork. Give the coral time to settle after introduction, and adjust only if it is not expanding normally.

Temperament

Allow room for it to spread over time. It is generally peaceful, but avoid crowding neighboring corals and monitor its boundaries as it establishes.

Feeding

Feeding is usually optional. It may accept occasional small foods, but stable conditions and appropriate placement remain the primary care priorities.

General Care

Maintain stable aquarium conditions and observe the disc for normal expansion. Start with gentler light and protected flow, then make changes gradually rather than moving the coral repeatedly or exposing it to direct current.

A protected, low-flow location helps this mushroom coral settle and expand.
