WATER REQUIREMENTS & GENERAL CARE

• Temperature: 24–27 °C
• Salinity: 1.024–1.026 (32–35 ppt)
• pH: 8.1–8.4
• Alkalinity: 8–9 dKH

Stable parameters, balanced nutrients, and adequate trace elements are essential for maintaining strong polyp extension and intense red coloration.

LIGHTING
• Moderate
• PAR Range: 80–150 PAR

Moderate lighting encourages full extension and preserves the coral’s rich red saturation. Gradual acclimation is recommended to prevent light stress.

---

PLACEMENT
• Bottom / Lower–Mid rockwork

Place on stable rockwork or the sandbed with ample clearance for full polyp extension. Avoid contact with neighbouring corals.

---

FLOW
