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 its intended light level and watch polyp extension and overall response before making further placement changes.

Flow

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

Placement

Place it in lower to middle reef areas. Start with room around the specimen, then allow time to settle before adjusting its position or flow exposure.

Temperament

Allow generous spacing from nearby corals. Torch corals are aggressive and have stinging potential, so keep their reach in mind as polyps extend and move with current.

Feeding

Offer occasional meaty foods if desired. Feeding is optional, and any food should be provided carefully to avoid unnecessary excess in the aquarium.

General Care

Maintain stable reef conditions, especially salinity and alkalinity, and avoid sudden changes. Observe polyp extension, tissue condition, lighting response, and flow response regularly so adjustments can be made gradually.

Give this torch coral stable care, indirect flow, and ample space to extend.
