Lighting Requirements

Prefers low to medium light (75-250 PAR). Gradual acclimation to higher light is recommended to prevent stress. A PAR meter can help optimize light levels in mixed reef tanks.

Ideal Tank Placement

Place in areas with steady, moderate water flow, avoiding turbulence. Ensure it has room to grow, either on rockwork or aquarium glass in a bare bottom setup.

Water Flow Requirements

Moderate flow is ideal to gently shift the coral’s tissue, preventing debris accumulation while promoting healthy growth.

Aggressiveness and Compatibility

Provide ample space for growth, as this coral will compete with others it touches.

Feeding and Nutrition

Primarily relies on photosynthesis but benefits from occasional target feedings with coral foods like Reef Chili and amino acids, which enhance growth and coloration.

Growth Rate and Pattern

Grows at a moderate rate, influenced by the shape of the substrate it encrusts.

Acclimation Process

Proper acclimation is crucial for corals to adapt to new environments. Refer to the Coral Acclimation Guide for detailed instructions.
