Compatibility: Reef safe with adequate spacing. Avoid placing near aggressive corals that may overgrow or sting.
Diet: Primarily photosynthetic but benefits from occasional feeding of coral foods such as phytoplankton or specialised SPS coral supplements.

Maximum Size: Typically grows into medium-sized colonies under optimal conditions.
Minimum Tank Size: Recommended 90 litres (approximately 20 gallons) or larger to maintain stable water quality.
Regular water testing and maintenance of calcium, alkalinity, and magnesium levels are essential for healthy growth. This frag is an excellent choice for hobbyists looking to expand their SPS collection with a visually striking and well-cultured specimen.
