Moving Ricordia

[rgb4136]

I am just trying my hand at keeping Green Ricordia. I purchased two from SF.com. One now seems to have disconected from it's rock and has moved through some considerable obstacles to the back corner of the tank near the intake for my filter, where it appeared to be attached to a rock. Yesterday morning it had moved again just away from the rock maybe half inch. This moring it is gone. The other is still attached to it's rock about six inches below my 65 watt power compact, it seems to be doing fine, although the color is not as bright as I had hoped, it seems to be quite a bit larger than when I put it in the tank about 6 weeks ago.
Any suggestions or comments appreciated.

Possibly place them in a less flow area...I've had a few re-locate due to excessive flow. Also...since this isn't really about trades or such I'm moving this thread over to the reef forum where you'll likely get more responses.

Corals move? Which ones are more prone to moving?

Mushrooms and ricordias, sometimes a zoo will detach and blow around til it finds a spot to reattach
