This is a WYSIWYG coral, meaning the coral shown in the photo is the exact piece you will receive.

Quick Care Summary

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

Lighting

Provide moderate lighting. Introduce it gradually to its intended light level and watch for normal expansion as it settles into the aquarium.

Flow

Use moderate, indirect, varied flow. Water movement should gently move the polyps without blasting them with strong direct current.

Placement

Place it in lower to middle reef areas. Give the coral time to acclimate after placement, and avoid frequent moves while it adjusts.

Temperament

Allow generous spacing from neighboring corals. Hammer corals are semi-aggressive, expand beyond their base, and can sting nearby corals when placed too closely.

Feeding

Occasional meaty foods may be offered, but feeding is optional. Target feed gently when polyps are expanded and avoid overwhelming the coral.

General Care

Maintain stable salinity, alkalinity, temperature, and nutrient levels rather than making rapid corrections. Observe polyp expansion and overall response after any change to lighting, flow, feeding, or placement.

Stable conditions and thoughtful spacing support long-term hammer coral care.
