Its been in a couple of weeks and it just hasn't settled well at all, I've kept it in low light and low/moderate flow and it just doesn't seem happy. I've not seen any sign of feeding sweepers at night and I've been encouraging it to eat with mysis/reefroids.

Last couple of days it also had random holes appearing in the flesh on the top? (Pinkish looking areas) - Is it dying? Should I try moving it somewhere else?

Not sure on PAR, need to rent a meter from an LFS. Its on the sandbed of a Red Sea Max Nano XL - off to the side of the tank. Running a Red Sea LED50. 45% blues 15% whites.
 
its skeleton is starting to poke out. I agree with above, I think its either too much or too little light or flow. It needs to be "just right"

I never knew they were so finicky as an LPS. Maybe I am just quite quite ready for stony corals yet. I have plenty of softies that are happy and my Duncan has grown 4 new heads.
