Quick Care Summary

• Lighting: Low to moderate lighting
• Flow: Moderate indirect flow
• Placement: Lower to middle reef areas
• Temperament: Allow space from neighboring corals
• Care Level: Moderate

Lighting

Provide low to moderate lighting. Start in gentler light during acclimation, then adjust placement gradually while watching the coral’s response.

Flow

Use moderate indirect flow. Water movement should keep the coral clear of settled debris without directing aggressive flow across fleshy tissue.

Placement

Place it in lower to middle reef areas. Acclimate gradually and secure the frag where it receives indirect movement and appropriate light.

Temperament

Leave conservative space between this coral and neighboring corals. Exact aggression can vary by coral group, so avoid close placement and monitor surrounding tissue.

Feeding

Feeding is optional. Offer occasional appropriately sized coral food if desired, and avoid overfeeding the system.

General Care

Maintain stable reef conditions and observe the coral after changes in lighting, flow, or placement. Avoid sudden adjustments, keep debris from accumulating, and make gradual corrections based on its visible response.

Give it stable placement, indirect flow, and room to settle in.
