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 when introducing it to brighter conditions, then observe polyp extension and overall response before making further placement changes.

Flow

Use moderate, indirect, varied flow. Gentle movement helps the polyps sway, while strong direct flow can cause stress and should be avoided.

Placement

Place it in lower to middle reef areas. Give the coral time to adjust after introduction, and secure its placement where flow remains indirect.

Temperament

Allow generous space from nearby corals. Torch corals are aggressive and can sting surrounding specimens, so avoid placing it where its extended polyps can reach neighbors.

Feeding

Offer occasional meaty foods if desired. Feeding is optional, and any food should be delivered carefully without exposing the coral to excessive flow.

General Care

Maintain stable reef conditions, with particular attention to salinity and alkalinity. Avoid sudden changes, monitor polyp behavior after adjustments, and make corrections gradually rather than shifting lighting, flow, or placement all at once.

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