Care guide

Care notes

Care notes for this piece, from our tanks to yours. A care guide comes with your order, too.

Lighting

Low to moderate light keeps the color intense and avoids tissue stress.

Flow

Low, gentle flow keeps it inflated. High flow can tear the soft tissue.

Feeding

Target-feed meaty foods (mysis, LPS pellets, chopped clam) 2–3 times a week, especially when feeder tentacles come out at night.

Placement

A soft sand bed away from sharp rock and aggressive neighbors. It inflates a lot, so leave room.

Acclimation

Drip acclimate slowly (60+ minutes) and keep calcium, alkalinity and magnesium steady.
