Quick Care Summary

• Lighting: Low to moderate lighting
• Flow: Low to moderate indirect flow
• Placement: Lower to middle reef areas
• Temperament: Semi-aggressive
• Care Level: Moderate

Lighting

Provide low to moderate lighting. Start with gentler exposure, then acclimate gradually to avoid sudden lighting increases.

Flow

Use low to moderate indirect flow. Gentle, varied movement helps keep the coral clear without directing aggressive current onto its fleshy polyps.

Placement

Place it in lower to middle reef areas with moderate spacing from nearby corals. Allow time to adjust before making changes to light or water movement.

Temperament

Give this semi-aggressive coral room from neighbors. Leave space between polyps and surrounding corals to account for potential stinging and prevent contact.

Feeding

Occasional small meaty foods may be offered, but feeding is optional. Target feed lightly when polyps are receptive and avoid overfeeding.

General Care

Maintain stable reef conditions and observe polyp response after introduction. Avoid sudden increases in lighting or water movement, and make adjustments gradually if the coral shows signs of stress.

A measured acclimation and open placement help support long-term acan care.
