Had this waiting at the LFS for a while and just added last night. Wondering is there is too much flow coming across from the left?

 
I would like to know also. Nursing one back to health as well.
 
I looked at the video and I don't see any flow which makes me think you might need more. I can't say you do, because I can't see what you have but I don't think it is too much. The coral looks inflated vs. flattened or closed up what happens when a storm blows through with strong currents. HTH.
 
Inflated is good then. Just need enough to keep any detritus from sticking.

Was concerned as the left side is not as "pufy" as the right but that is also the side the LFS had towards the back in there display.
 
That actually looks like a Trachyphyllia, not an Australophyllia wilsoni.
