New Scleronephthya tree coal

[Hyde2406]

I was given this coral for my birthday and I'm wondering where it should go, should I dip it? It looks like I need low light and slow flow, and heavy feeding. I have a few spots that I think will work well, but look to the more experienced reefers on this site. I feed 2 cubes + pellets, reef snow and aminos daily. I have good expert with 2 Algae scrubbers. Tank is a 34 gal red sea with a 9 gal sump. Latest parameters are in an image below. I use SB reef lights at the configuration in the image below. Thank you in advance for all the help

I dipped it and placed it under an overhang....

May need good flow. Looks like it was glued on plug. Bummer

Yeah it was attached when I got it. There seems to be a pebble between the plug and the frag though if that is better. I'll move it to a higher flow area. I put it under the rock ledge because I read they don't like bright lights... I also read that maybe placing them upside down helps, any help is appreciated.

It came off the plug when I went to move it so I tucked it in a shell in a bit of flow, we will see how it looks tomorrow
