Australian symphillia

[Zbass]

I bought an Australian symphillia from Aqua SD. I keep getting conflicting answers on the par level. What par level should I bee keeping this coral at

 

[bubbgee]

it's deep water I think. Low par (bottom of the tank/at sandbed) and has to be temps of 75F to acclimate for a while. It'll bleach at high par but with feeding, it will recover.

@bubbgee is correct. They do require moderate lighting, but try to make it indirect lighting. Meaning, don't place it directly under your lights.
Give this article a read, it has some information I think you will find useful.

That is not a Symphyllia nor an Australophyllia wilsoni.

Corals are still imported under the name Symphyllia because CITES still uses it. But the genus was made obsolete years ago.

You have either a Lobophyllia species or an Acanthastrea pachycepta.
Both can handle considerable amounts of light but are highly adaptable.
