I have a Tyree Fire Echinopora lamellosa*about as round as a coffee cup. When I got it awhile ago if had polyps that stood up like palys with orange edges. I moved it lower in the tank a few months because it had very long sweepers. Now the polyps do not stand up nor have the orange markings. I am thinking it needs the higher light to get the original result. Anyone have this chalice and could tell me if my thinking is correct.

From what I understand its very low light that brings out the orange. My piece had orange when I got it and has never regained it since. Grows like a weed though...
