Care Levels

Easy – You should probably be well aware what your current calcium and alkalinity levels are to choose this level.  While they will still be resistant to mild swings, a bit more care should be taken to make sure your tank is remaining somewhat stable.

Moderate - 

Expert – Time to break out the phosphate test; if it gets too low, this one might throw off all of its skin.  If it gets too high, it will probably turn brown and eventually die. If you want something that won’t “take over your tank”, this one will be it!

Feeding

While no direct feeding is required if you have adequate lighting and fish that are being fed, most corals grow and look much better when they’re being fed regularly.  While a coral will accept a granule smaller than its polyp size, it can’t accept anything larger, and can even spend more energy than it gains trying to digest a piece too big.  The best coral food for your tank will depend not only on the corals you are feeding, but the nutrient content of your tank as well.  If you have an issue with higher nutrients, you will want a food with a lower nutrient content.   If you have a tank with higher nutrient levels, you may want one with a lower content.

Lighting

Our corals are grown under Radion lighting; many can take extreme and even sudden adjustments.  While we cannot say how high or how low you should place it in your tank not knowing what lights you have, we can give you a range based on our own Radion G6 Pros.  If the coral looks pale or hasn’t extended fully in the first week or so, this is probably because it is receiving too much light; it is unlikely to be not enough if you have a light meant for corals.

Flow

Low - This does not mean NO flow, although it may be able to take that.  Typically lower position in your tank.

Medium - This one will do better if you can see it moving a bit, a gentle sway. 

High - Higher position in your system closer to the powerheads. Most SPS like acropora require moderate to high flow.
