I was hoping to get some expertize in where to place my sunset monti frag. High low and how much flow. Ha ha that rhymes maybe I should have taken up rapping instead of reefing.
 
Whatever you do not put in a place that you may regret later...like a high light, prime acro spot directly in the middle of the tank like I did haha. IME it can be placed just about anywhere and it is highly invasive.
 
I got mine on a bottom rock under some good 250w lighting and it grows like mad and the color is great.
 
I've bleached mine twice now about 2/3 down in my tank. I've got it on the sand bed now under a ledge trying to get it to regain color.
 
Thank you everyone I had him at the top and I was getting good growth but the color wasn't what I hoped for so I put him about mid tank. My tank is a 72x24x30 deep so I am hoping to get a little better color. It has been a month since I had him shipped to me maybe he is just recovering still. How long should I expect it to take for him to color up from shipping? Thanks everyone
