platygyra question

[tydtran]

I got a maze brain coral 3 weeks ago. 10in specimen, standrad red and green. I originally placed it on my rockwork about 10 in from my T5 lights and noticed that the red parts were getting pale. I want to move it down deeper in the tank.

Is it all right to put this coral on the sand bed?

yes it would work they do better on the ground

I had mine in a shaded area under a rock, I moved it about 3 inches out of the rockwork and into the light, the thing never fed and was always closed up. I moved it back to the shade and it is fine again, they love shade.

Yes, mine is also doing that. The brownish part has turned a really pale luminous green. Is that bad for it? It had some tentacles out this morning. Its on the sandbed, the only other spot I could put it is a cave in my LR..
