Quick Care Summary
-
Lighting: Low to moderate lighting
-
Flow: Moderate indirect flow
-
Placement: Lower to middle reef areas
-
Temperament: Aggressive
-
Care Level: Moderate
Lighting
Provide low to moderate lighting. Begin with gentler intensity, then acclimate gradually while watching for a consistent, healthy response.
Flow
Use moderate indirect flow. Enough movement should keep the coral clear of settled debris, but avoid strong direct flow against its fleshy tissue.
Placement
Place it in lower to middle reef areas. Allow time to adjust after placement rather than frequently changing its position or light intensity.
Temperament
Give this aggressive coral ample space from nearby corals. Nighttime sweeper or feeding tentacles can reach beyond the visible colony and may sting close neighbors.
Feeding
Feeding is optional. Occasional small meaty foods may be offered when feeding tentacles are visible, while avoiding excess food accumulation.
General Care
Maintain stable conditions and make changes gradually. Observe its response to light, flow, and nearby corals, especially after acclimation or any adjustment to the reef layout.
Provide room, indirect movement, and stability for reliable long-term care.
