If it survives. Im not sure how well it will do. My tank is designed for softies. All I can do is keep stability. I acclimated them for 3hrs. The system they came from alk was 10 and nitrates 8well ,that's it, is all over now ,1 stick ,hooked for life
all tests are api
alk 8.5.
Nitrates at 80 or higher.
Calcium 450
phosphates .25
Salinity 1.025
Temp 78
Before I get beat up to bad. I use to chase numbers and caused more problems than I solved. This is where the tank settled at.
I hope the stick is a hardy coral. If i should loose it I may try a Pocillopora
Im still a leather guy.
I have sticks in about the same parameters you do and they do fine. Only difference is Sg at 1.026 and alk at 9. I have found that with higher nutrients I can blast them with a ton of light and they don’t bleach out like my lower nutrient tanks. Stability is key, IMO.
Here are some examples of my nasty tank sticks lol.

I hope mine are as great as yours. You give me a lot of hope for them.I have sticks in about the same parameters you do and they do fine. Only difference is Sg at 1.026 and alk at 9.

They all browned up a little at first, but then came back just fine. You taking time to acclimate them for a good bit of time should help also.
Plus digis are tough. Mine has been knocked off a few times and fell into a torch garden. Little bit of damage, but always recovers. I now have removed the baseball size zebra turbos, so that shouldn’t happen anymore lol.

I'm content with my tank. 90g is a good sized tank. The most important thing is that I think my tank is epic and thats all that matters.
im going to put it up for a 365 tank. How do I do that? @Crabs McJones

Hello Reef2Reef'ers! Let me preface this post by saying that your tank doesn't have to be packed full of mature sps coral colonies and have the best gear to be included, or even have coral at all (FOWLR are welcome!). But we will need a decent photo. :) We want to start a new series of threads...
