I doubt you will have a hard time with them. They sure look nice and in time should color back up for you. Medium flow and medium light for now and you should be on your way to SSC heaven.

That's the picture of health next to mine. I picked up the ORA shortcake and it has been completely dark brown since I got it. I preordered it at my LFS. I figure I have a long road ahead if it even survives. The notes on it say that it is a slow grower.

I got a Wild one and believe it or not it is right under a D120 LED panel with the LEDS 75% and whites 10%. It seems to like the LED Blue at about > 700 PAR with higher flow 24" in front of a MP60. Polyps are out all of the time. Seems to be growing fast.

I have a wild one. Was brown when I got it. Color came back within a few weeks in a high light , high flow area. It did take forever to start growing though, but once it did, it really took off.

In my experience the SS browns out easily and takes its time to color up. Just give it some time and stability, it looks like you are already on your way.

What's Ora? I don't know the difference? The pieces I'm showing are wild collected
