Picking up this SPS this weekend.

Seller says its a bugout Stylo. Colors are right. Size was described as size of a dinner plate. I am newish to SPS and with my google searches have never seen a Stylo grow like this. I have had purple stylo in the past. Usually look like a branching tree or a fluffy bush, best description i can come up with before I have had my coffee.

This particular coral grew from a frag and is in a 40G breeder. Unfortunately I am not sure placement. Did it flatten out due to Flow? or maybe growing to close to the surface?

Light requirements? 200 par? are they able to take more with time?

I am going to have to frag it. Will split it between my two tanks. will start it near the sand and over the next maybe 2 months try to move it up to mid tank?

My tanks see 200 par at the sand bed, 540 mid tank and 790 1" below surface.

I think once they hit a specific PAR they tend to plateau on the top. My Stylos and Birdsnest do similar.
