Light for Blue/Yellow birdsnest

[brad]

There is a birdsnest coral that almost everyone in the area has. It has rounded tips, yellow/tan base and brightly colored polyps. I've seen it with every color of polyp from yellow to green to teal to blue, and I believe it is the same coral. I have not seen it with more than 1 color polyp at the same time on the same colony.

My own colony is growing well, but is yellow-green. IMO the teal is the best looking form of it. I am tempted to try moving it up, down, etc to try to get the teal color. Does anyone know whether it needs more light, less light, etc?

I believe this is it:

these do like tons of light. have never seen it go yellow as you describe. mine is the size of a soccer ball.... i'd say move it up and into high flow.
