Recently. I got rainbow chalice in my sps dominated tank. With 2 radion g4 pro and 2 g5blue led T5 hybrid. My problem is par is very high. Even the sand bed is over 150. The first day I got I put it under a rock which is 80 par. It lose some color. I am considering move it to other place instead under rock. Next to my scoly. The scoly is doing well. Please guys help me. I see some peooke said chalice does not like light. So I out it under rock. But some people said I should move it out of shaded area but keep low light.

Leave it there for a week and gradually add more light. If it's too much turn your brightness down. I honestly dont know why people have so much light. Once all your corals grow in it gets boring looking at the same stuff. Turn your lights down, buy more small frags, and enjoy the slow process they make in the years to come. The only people that need bright lights and dosing are coral farmers. I'm not talking about wanna be fraggers with their 50gal frag tank.
