This is a WYSIWYG coral, meaning the coral shown in the photo is the exact piece you will receive.

Quick Care Summary

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

Lighting

Provide low to moderate lighting. Acclimate gradually and avoid sudden increases in intensity, which can stress a Micromussa or acan coral.

Flow

Use low to moderate indirect flow. Gentle movement helps keep the coral clear without directing aggressive flow at its fleshy polyps.

Placement

Place it in lower to middle reef areas. Start with moderate placement and allow time for acclimation before making changes to light or water movement.

Temperament

Allow space from neighboring corals. This semi-aggressive acan can affect nearby corals, so avoid crowding and leave room as it settles in.

Feeding

Offer occasional small meaty foods if desired. Feeding is optional, and water quality should remain stable around any feeding routine.

General Care

Maintain stable conditions and observe the coral after introduction or adjustments. Make changes gradually, especially when increasing lighting or flow, and monitor spacing from nearby corals as the specimen settles into its placement.

A measured acclimation and consistent placement support long-term acan care.
