Placing them in too much light or flow

Bowerbanki-type LPS corals prefer low light and very gentle flow , but they’re often placed in mid-to-high light zones for “better colour.” This can lead to: bleaching or paling tissue recession around the skeleton failure to fully inflate during the day They perform best when kept on the sand bed or low rockwork with soft, indirect movement.

Poor placement on unstable or dirty substrate

Because they are typically sand-bed corals, a major mistake is placing them: in areas with detritus buildup in high-flow sand zones that constantly bury them on unstable surfaces where they can tip or collect waste This leads to: irritation at the base bacterial issues over time reduced inflation and long-term decline A clean, low-flow sand area with stable placement is key for long-term success.

Inconsistent feeding or overfeeding heavy chunks

These corals respond well to feeding, but a common mistake is either: not feeding them at all, or overloading them with large, messy foods Problems include: nutrient spikes in smaller systems detritus sitting on the coral and causing irritation poor expansion if feeding is irregular They do best with small, consistent feedings (fine meaty foods, reef roids-type nutrition, or small frozen pieces) rather than large infrequent meals.
