Care
Blastomussa prefer lower light and gentle flow than most LPS — too much of either keeps the polyps from inflating. They respond well to target feeding and will bud new heads steadily once settled.
Acclimation
Float 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.
Photographed under blue/actinic aquarium lighting, which is how most reef tanks are viewed. Colours will look different under white light.
