ive had my beach bum about half way down the tank in direct light. It's starting to really turn white on me. I'm not sure if it's getting too much or too little light. Or maybe it's a completely different thing going on.. Any input would be great. It's been sitting right next to a large alter ego piece which is doing great tho. Would hate to lose this
 
Under radions I kept it halfway up in my 180 and it grew like a champ and had great color. Under 250w radiums though I had to move it to the sand bed and put it in a slightly shaded area for it to thrive. It's def a lower light/low flow coral.
