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 disc expansion.

Flow

Use low, indirect flow. Gentle movement helps keep the coral clear without blasting the disc or preventing it from expanding normally.

Placement

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

Temperament

Allow room for spreading over time. It is generally peaceful, but its ability to expand across nearby rockwork means neighboring corals should have adequate space.

Feeding

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

General Care

Maintain stable aquarium conditions and watch for normal disc expansion after placement or adjustment. Avoid abrupt lighting increases and direct flow, then make changes slowly so the coral can settle into its location.

Give it gentle conditions and space to settle before making further adjustments.
