Default Pulse Coral Question

Is it normal for pulse corals not to pulse if there is sufficent flow in the tank?

In my previous tank, it didn't pulse in high current. So, I put it where there was low current and it started pulsing. =)

Depends on the Xenia species, I have 2 in my tank and only the silver bar pulses the other just sitts there.

I have noticed that lighting more than flow affects the pulsing. I went from PC to MH and the Xenia started pulsing a lot more and a lot faster. If they are getting pushed around by the flow they wont pulse as much.
