The lighting in those tanks is crummy. I've given the coral a drip acclimation, and it is now in my system. I've turned off the lights. I'll turn the Blue+ on in a half hour, and coral+ and purple+ on in an hour. I've got it sitting in the lowest light area in my tank.
How should I go about acclimating it to my systems light? It is four 36" t5s over a 36x18x16 tank: not a high light system, but a lot more light than what this coral is accustomed too.

start it down at the lowest place you can , low light and feed it . it will take meaty foods. slowly move it to brighter light. i wouldnt blast top high and center:P
