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 a mushroom coral.

Flow

Use low, indirect flow. Avoid strong direct current, which can keep the disc from expanding normally.

Placement

Place it in lower reef areas or protected rockwork. Choose a sheltered location and allow time to adjust after introduction.

Temperament

Keep it with appropriate room to spread. Mushroom corals are generally peaceful, but expansion over nearby surfaces can affect neighboring corals.

Feeding

Feeding is usually optional. Occasional small foods may be accepted, but stable conditions remain the priority.

General Care

Maintain stable aquarium conditions and watch for normal disc expansion after placement. Adjust lighting or flow gradually rather than making sudden changes, especially if the coral stays contracted or receives direct current.

Give it gentle conditions and room to settle into its chosen spot.
