Aussie prism favia lighting...?

Yup that looks just like mine......Sweet I got a great deal on it then. I had been looking at some of the sites and just couldn't justify $30+ a polyp on a brain coral. Since I got the new tank up I kinda wanted to get some stuff I hadn't had in many years and Favia has always been one my all time favorite corals...

Here is some updated pick of it.....

I am not sure if I should move it back as it was shaded in the first spot but was getting more light which is obvious in the first pics compared to the second....

My diver picks these up from time to time and he says that they come from pretty murky water.....can't see hand in front of face water. Lots of shade, more shade the better and then slowly add a little light. Flow, you probably want about medium to help stimulate new growth. I know fragging these guys are pretty easy and witht he right conditions, they can grow nicely. =)
