Placement tip. Keep the mouth and tissue free of sand. Plate corals can shift position, so give them clearance and avoid precarious rock ledges.
Help it settle in
- Keep conditions steady. Maintain stable temperature, salinity and alkalinity. Monitor calcium and magnesium in reefs with stony corals.
- Make gradual changes. Acclimate to your lighting and flow. Avoid repeated moves while the coral settles.
- Feed thoughtfully. If offering food, use small portions suited to the polyps and monitor nutrients. Remove uneaten food rather than letting it accumulate.
- Watch the tissue. Persistent retraction, paling or tissue loss calls for a check of water quality, light, flow and nearby corals.
