Elegance coral . Keep it on the sand bed
it's not looking happy

Awesome thanks for the help

yes, keep it on the sand bed looking up not forwards.

Ok thanks for the input. In further research I read that results varie from sand bed to live rock. Arguments are that the sand bed is full of debris and detrius. Its not good for the coral to imbedded in it. Also that in the wild they grow best on the coral reef. Not on the sand bed. Not arguing with anyone just stating what Ive come acrossed in reading other threads and google searching.

I will try the sandbed first since that seems to be most popular choice. Anyone keeping them on the live rock have any input?

I have both of mine on my sand bed and they are doing great. I think it has to do a lot flow.
