I guess it best to keep this deep water acro lower in the tank. Lighting on that part of the reef is 4x54watt t5s
 
No acros like to be shaded. Some do better in higher or lower light but you never want one shaded. You can always start it low and move it up over time and see how it reacts. If it's brown move it up and if it bleaches move it down.
