Quick Care Summary

• Lighting: Low to moderate lighting
• Flow: Low, indirect flow
• Placement: Lower reef areas or protected rockwork
• Temperament: Generally peaceful but can spread
• Care Level: Beginner to Moderate

Lighting

Use low to moderate lighting, beginning gently after introduction. Avoid abrupt increases in intensity, which can prevent the coral from adjusting comfortably.

Flow

Provide low, indirect flow. Position it away from strong direct current so the disc can expand normally without being continuously pushed or folded.

Placement

Place it in lower reef areas or protected rockwork. Acclimate gradually to its chosen location and observe its disc expansion before making further adjustments.

Temperament

Keep reasonable space around it as it settles. Mushroom corals are generally peaceful, but this type can spread and may gradually occupy nearby rockwork.

Feeding

Feeding is usually optional. It may accept occasional small foods, but stable conditions and suitable lighting and flow remain the primary care considerations.

General Care

Maintain stable aquarium conditions and watch for normal disc expansion after placement. Make changes gradually, especially when adjusting lighting or water movement, and avoid direct flow that keeps the disc from opening fully.

Give it a protected spot and allow time for steady adjustment.
