I would move the favia down to the sandbed, and see if it improves

Welcome to R2R and I agree...I would move it down and give it a chance to acclimate.

Welcome to Reef2Reef! +3 on moving it down to the sand bed. I restarted my salt addiction after a long layoff with a SpecV. It was a great nano tank.

Cool thanks moved it how long do your guys think it should be in the sand bed for like a week?

 

[Crabs McJones]

I'd leave it down there until it improves. And even then you don't want to mount it very high in the tank, these guys tend to do better under low light low flow.

Welcome to R2R! You can already see how helpful this forum is!

What type of flow and light will Favia thrive in?

Hi & welcome!
I'm new aswell and have/continue to set up a nano too. A big thing I learned when questioning placement is also light, are you using the lighting the aquarium came with? If so I think one of first upgrades in the future should be sufficient lighting. I had to replace the LEDs my JBJ cubey came with.
