Blastomussa merletti, LPS should be hardy and a quick grower. Lower lighting

another question i got this torch coral today is this too much flow? or should i move it? and if were to move it where might be the ideal place on this rock structure

Too much flow. Since i don't know the flow of your tank I can't tell you where to put it on that rock. I would google torch coral flow/care. You can see in the tanks where torches are thriving and how the torch moves in those videos with the flow. Try to replicate that movement in your tank.

i'd vote too much as well. it looks like its getting really beat up.
i keep mine where the tentacles look like they are dancing and not getting whipped around...they seem happy and puffy when dancing.
video just taken - nearly bedtime and most are retracting but you get the idea

did a water change and moved the torch to the lower part of the tank
