Hi All! I hope I am putting this question in the correct forum...

I bought this "long tentacle rainbow goniopora" at a frag swap a week ago. He seems pretty happy color wise ... however, most of the time, he's staying pretty compact.

Over the last few days, when my wave makers go into Nutrient Transport mode (high, variable flow), he has a few arms that have started to come out and wave like crazy.

So my question is, do I need to put him in a place that has more flow? Or should I wait a little longer to see if he's just now settling in?

He currently sits 3/4 of the way up my 200g tank, front and center. (5'x2'x2')

Please and Thank You in advance for any experience with these!

I have a red one and a green one and they both like lots of flow.
