I recently added a two head purple torch coral. I'm trying to find a spot in the tank where it will happiest. It appears to like mid way up in the tank. I have good water flow, I am running three Hydor Koralia 1500 pumps, Hydor Nano and a two head return from my sump. I'm running two 46 inch LED light bars, one Current and the other a Marine land on my 125 gallon tank. Any suggestion on the best place to placement of this coral in my tank? So far it opens only partially extending its tentacles.
 
The Torch Coral is a hardy coral that seems to do best in a well lit area with moderate water flow! The tissue is sensitive however and can become irritated by sharp surfaces of LR, mine does best with its skeletal base buried in the substrate on the bottom of my tank!
