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 and acclimate gradually to the final intensity. A slow adjustment helps avoid sudden changes when introducing it from a different lighting environment.

Flow

Use moderate, indirect, varied flow, and avoid strong direct flow. Changing current should move the polyps gently without blasting or pinning them in one direction.

Placement

Place it in lower to middle reef areas with open room around it. Observe its response after placement before making gradual adjustments to light or flow.

Temperament

Allow generous spacing from neighboring corals. Torch corals are aggressive and have stinging potential, so keep extended polyps from contacting other corals.

Feeding

Occasional meaty feeding is optional. Offer it when practical, but do not rely on supplemental feeding as a requirement or overfeed.

General Care

Maintain stable reef conditions, especially salinity and alkalinity, and avoid sudden changes. Monitor polyp extension and tissue condition, then adjust placement, lighting, or flow gradually rather than changing several factors at once.

Provide space, stable conditions, and gentle indirect water movement.
