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 and increase only gradually, as sudden lighting changes can stress this coral.

Flow

Use low to moderate indirect flow. Gentle, dispersed movement helps keep the coral clear without blasting its fleshy polyps.

Placement

Place it in lower to middle reef areas with moderate spacing from nearby corals. Acclimate gradually when moving it into brighter light or stronger water movement.

Temperament

Give it room from neighboring corals because it is semi-aggressive. Maintain spacing to reduce contact and potential stinging issues as polyps expand.

Feeding

Feeding is optional, but occasional small meaty foods can be offered. Keep portions modest and avoid relying on heavy feeding.

General Care

Maintain stable aquarium conditions and observe polyp response after any change. Avoid sudden increases in lighting or water movement, and adjust placement slowly if the coral appears stressed or remains poorly expanded.

Steady conditions, indirect flow, and thoughtful spacing support reliable long-term care.
