Lighting: Requires moderate to high lighting, ideally provided by LED or T5 fixtures designed for reef tanks. Ensure gradual acclimation to intense light to prevent bleaching.

Water Flow: Prefers moderate to strong, turbulent water flow to promote healthy polyp extension and prevent detritus accumulation.

Placement: Position in the upper to middle regions of the tank where lighting and flow conditions are optimal. Maintain adequate spacing from neighbouring corals to avoid aggressive interactions.

Care Level: Best suited for intermediate to advanced aquarists due to its sensitivity to water quality and lighting changes.

Reef Compatibility: Yes, with adequate spacing to prevent stinging or overgrowth of nearby corals.

Regular monitoring of water parameters such as calcium, alkalinity, and magnesium is essential to support skeletal growth. Stable temperature and salinity levels will ensure long-term health.
