According to that article they are saying about 100 par. TSA says 350. I’m getting contradicting info. What levels are you all keeping them at?

150-200 par should be fine IMHO

Low-medium par I'm guessing. I generally see Lithophyllon (undulatum) in siltier environments where the light penetration is not as good.

PS. The coral shown is a Cycloseris explanulata/wellsi, not Lithophyllon.

I have a piece that's in around 300ish par and seems happy. Nice colors, grows slowish imo but not sure what a normal rate of growth for them are
