Acclimation first SPS

[PhantomHalo]

Hello, I was just wondering how long you guys give your SPS to acclimate to a position? How do you know they are happy or to give them a bit longer? I just got a big order in of SPS, but of course, not all of them have PE right now. Just want to make sure they are in the correct lighting and flow. Thanks all!

After dipping, I immediately place them mid way on a frag rack, high flow near an MP10. I leave them only until I decide on a permanent place for them, 100% purely based off of aesthetics lol. This can range from 1 week to 1 month tbh. I typically ask where the last owner kept them and what the par level was, and I try to match that spot in my tank best I can so I do bleach or brown em.

I totally totally totally always push my most prettiest pieces towards the top, or towards the front

I will try! I don’t have any filters so everything looks blue. I need to get something to take better pictures aside from my phone. I’ll throw up a list of what I got in a bit. It was from the Aqua SD Sale. They don’t know what par they keep their corals at unfortunately.

I’ll get some more pics later. However, I got 3 freebies in my box that I’m super stoked about. I think they are the lightning tenuis, Wonder Woman Acro, and the magic dragon monti! The colonies that I got are super nice! However, my pics just don’t do them justice. I got in the sale early and got some really nice rainbow ones!
