It wants strong turbulent flow, high light, and tightly held alkalinity, calcium and magnesium. Acclimate to light slowly over several weeks — bleaching from a sudden move to the top of the tank is the usual failure.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAcclimation\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eFloat the sealed bag for 15 minutes to equalise temperature, then drip acclimate for 30–45 minutes before placing. Start the coral low in the tank and move it up over a week or two if it wants more light. A freshwater or iodine dip before it goes in is cheap insurance against hitchhikers.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003ePhotographed under blue\/actinic aquarium lighting, which is how most reef tanks are viewed.
