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

Use low to moderate lighting. Acclimate gradually and avoid sudden increases in intensity, especially after placement or changes to your lighting schedule.

Flow

Provide low to moderate indirect flow. Gentle, dispersed movement helps keep the fleshy polyps from receiving a direct, aggressive blast.

Placement

Place it in lower to middle reef areas with moderate spacing from nearby corals. Start with a gentler location, then observe its response before making changes.

Temperament

Allow room around this semi-aggressive coral. Maintain spacing from neighboring corals to reduce contact and potential stinging, particularly as adjacent colonies expand.

Feeding

Occasional small meaty foods can be offered but are optional. Target feed gently when desired, avoiding forceful flow that may disturb the polyps.

General Care

Maintain stable conditions and make changes gradually. Watch polyp response after adjustments to lighting, flow, placement, or feeding, and avoid sudden increases in light or water movement.

Give this acan stable conditions, indirect flow, and room from neighboring corals.
