Water Flow: Moderate water flow is ideal to ensure the coral receives sufficient nutrients while preventing sediment accumulation on its surface.
Placement: Position the frag in a stable location with adequate spacing from neighbouring corals to prevent aggression and allow for growth. Avoid placing it too close to aggressive species.
Care Level: Suitable for hobbyists with some experience in coral husbandry. Regular water parameter monitoring is advised to maintain stable conditions.
Compatibility: Reef safe with adequate spacing. It coexists well with most peaceful reef inhabitants.
