Quick Care Summary

• Lighting: Moderate lighting
• Flow: Moderate, indirect and varied flow
• Placement: Lower to middle reef areas
• Temperament: Aggressive
• Care Level: Moderate

Lighting

Provide moderate lighting. Acclimate gradually to brighter conditions and observe its response before making additional placement or lighting adjustments.

Flow

Use moderate, indirect, varied flow. Movement should gently sway the tentacles while avoiding strong direct flow that can cause stress.

Placement

Place it in lower to middle reef areas. Allow room around the coral and make any changes gradually after it has settled in.

Temperament

Give it generous spacing from nearby corals. Torch corals are aggressive with stinging potential, so keep neighboring specimens beyond the reach of its tentacles.

Feeding

Offer occasional meaty foods if desired. Feeding is optional; deliver small portions carefully without overwhelming the coral.

General Care

Maintain stable reef conditions, especially salinity and alkalinity, and avoid sudden changes. Monitor extension and overall response as the coral acclimates, adjusting lighting, flow, or placement only gradually when needed.

Stable conditions and generous spacing support long-term torch coral care.
