Default Plate Coral Care

I picked up a neon green with purple rim plate coral today. Or rather, it will hopefully be neon green someday.

I purchased it from Pisces, and it has been in their back coral tanks forever. I'm pretty sure I've been humming and hawing about this coral for months. I don't know why I finally decided on it today, but I did. Should have bought it when I first saw it, as it is a pain in the arse now.

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.
