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. Start with gentler exposure, then acclimate gradually, since abrupt lighting increases can stress a mushroom coral.

Flow

Use low, indirect flow. Position it where water movement is gentle enough for the disc to expand normally rather than being pushed by direct current.

Placement

Place it in lower reef areas or protected rockwork. Allow time to settle after introduction, and adjust placement gradually if it does not expand normally.

Temperament

Keep reasonable space around it as it settles and spreads. Mushroom corals are generally peaceful, but spreading can bring them into contact with neighboring corals over time.

Feeding

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

General Care

Maintain stable conditions and observe the disc's expansion after placement or lighting changes. Avoid abrupt increases in light and direct flow, and make adjustments gradually to help the coral settle into its chosen area.

A protected lower-reef position supports straightforward long-term care.
