Frogspawn and water flow

[gypsie32]

I just bought a frogspawn for my 90gal and placed him near the top of the tank. I was wondering if I might have to much water flow on it. Those of you with frogspawns, do you feel they like more water flow or less? I also put it towards the top of the tank as I only have 440w of vho's. So far it seems to be ok. It has not opened all the way but he is not closed either.
Just wondering if I can keep it where it is?

frogspawn branching coral likes a medium flow of water. If it is near a powerhead it is ok, just dont put it right on top of or in front of one.

mine is just below my return and he loves it, not so much that its blowing too hard, behind my camera happy tangs.

IMO the frogspawn's tentacles should be swaying in the current but not getting whipped around.

I agree with Viper. Mine is on the bottom of a 90 with dual 250w MH and 184w PC. It is toward a corner and looks like a wheat field in a gentle breeze. It has close to doubled its' size in 4 months.
