Water Flow
This coral requires a moderate to strong level of water flow
Lighting
This coral requires moderate lighting (PAR 200-350) (from 3 to 5 watts per gallon), to maintain its color. T5's, Metal Halides, or LED's can all grow sps when the proper levels are provided. This coral does best under lower kelvin lighting so we recommend a 14-20K color spectrum for both best health and coloration.
Placement
Place this one on an exposed rock or ledge in the aquarium where it will receive direct flow and light.
Diet and Feeding
This coral is photosynthetic. Meaning a good portion of its nutrition comes from the algae zooxanthellae, through the light they receive. We recommend providing supplemental food such as micro-plankton, baby brine shrimp, or foods designed for filter feeding invertebrates. Also provide the supplemental addition of calcium, strontium, and other trace elements to the water.
