Birdsnest does very well on my sand in my 300. PAR level in one area in the far corner is like 100

So, you mean like from a frag rack on the side of your tank with the coral pointing out horizontally?

i just posted in the sps section
it seems to be growing like crazy with nice PE but it seems only the tips are green and the rest of the BN is brown. i had is placed up high in my tank and it was bleaching, i then moved it mid level where it browned up and got PE.
i have a diy leds with 64 3 watt bulbs. 11" off the surface with 80deg optics.
test water in a few will get back with numbers.
all other corals are doing great, my plate coral has good growth and color.
temp 77.8
ph 8.5
salt 1.025
