🧼 Care & Placement

• Lighting: Moderate to high LED or T5 lighting works best. Avoid sudden changes in intensity to prevent stress or bleaching.

• Flow: Moderate water movement allows the coral’s polyps to expand fully and sway gently, without causing damage.

• Water Parameters: Maintain stable reef conditions — temperature 24–28°C, salinity 1.023–1.026, calcium 400–450 ppm, alkalinity 8–12 dKH, magnesium 1250–1350 ppm.

• Placement: Place in mid to lower regions of the tank with enough space from other aggressive LPS corals to prevent stinging.

• Feeding: While primarily photosynthetic, occasional feeding of meaty foods enhances growth and coloration. Feeding is also beneficial to prevent the coral from targeting smaller tank inhabitants.
