Open brain problems

A couple months ago I bought an open brain from someone. It never seemed happy from day one. It seemed my light was a bit much for it. ATI 4 bulb over 75 gallon. I moved it into a cave a few days ago and all seemed well. It inflated so much that it was pressing against rocks. This morning I decided to move it out a little bit. It looked pretty good all day. I checked on it after the lights went out and it looks like it's back to spitting up zoo like it has been doing all along. It's not bleached. It does have a couple spots that are bleached though. I can't get things right for this thing. All other lps are ok.

Very low flow on this thing. I can't think of what to do to stop it from spitting. It did stop while in the cave. Didn't do it today until the lights went out. This is my fav one and don't want to se it die. If I leave it in too much shade that will also be bad correct?
 
I did notice bristle worms all around it. Is it possible they aggravate corals that lay on the sand bed?
