I recently added an Orange Ricordea to my tank. All my other corals are fat and happy. This one is yellow and looks stressed. I've tried a few different locations with low to medium flow and varying degrees of light.

108 gal tank
ph: 8
dkh: 8.9
ca: 469
mg: 1340

Put him in the sandbed and let him recover. They like low light low flow. If you keep moving him he can't adjust and it stresses them out more. Stability is key, sort of a set it and forget it :)
