Advice on Pachyseris rugosa

[locuus]

This is my third attempt at keeping this coral with no success. The scant information I can find suggests high flow and light, and low Nitrates. My parameters are all great but for some reason this coral seems to brown out and die while everything thrives. Some advice and/or experience with this would be really valued.

Higher random water flow and high light. These are awesome corals, especially if you can find one with a little bit of green or purple in it. When they're grown out the texture / shape of these corals in a tank is fantastic!

Thanks Jeremy

I've had them in high flow and high light (I'm now thinking I may need to position the next one higher in the tank to see) but I still feel I'm missing something in their care. They are my favourite coral and it kills me to not be able to keep them
