Hi guys were should I place this little guy in my tank, I bealive it's a candy cane coral and how often should I feed it.
Right now it's in a moderate to high flow area and medium light. It's been there for about two weeks now and he seems to be doing fine.
I read somewhere that they don't do to good in high flow areas should I move it? He looks happy there

Thank you!!!

If the coral is growing, expanding daily and maintaining coloration I would leave it where it is?
What are you using for flow?

There is 3 power heads in the tank, the tank is about 65g only two power heads are on all the time a big one that's pointed from left to right. The flow of that power head hits the left side of the tank and then goes back and it hits the coral and then the small power head helps to make that flow rotate back to the big power head.

The big power heads came with the tank, I'm not sure what brand or power they have, I'll check once I get home, all I can tell you is that they are powerfull to much for the size of my tank
 
So this is the big power head, if I don't aim it right it disrupts everything in the tank.

Just so you know, I see some aptasia on that powerhead. You should probably remove them as soon as possible.

Lol yep it was infested with aptasia, I have 3 peppermint shrimps that keep it in check, the power head is the only place they can't reach :)
