Tree Coral?

[freeride7]

I bought a coral the other day....it was listed as a finger coral however I have seen references and pictures here as a tree coral.
I knew this was a low light coral.....I have bare bones lighting in my 50 gal. Just 100 watts of flourescent.
I was wondering with this lighting, should this coral be placed near the top? And also does this coral require alot of water flow?
Thanks

I believe it is actually a leather finger coral....any comments to my original post?

yes they like moderate water flow but i don't think that will be enought light. I dont think any photosynthetic coral other than mushrooms should be put under regular flourescents.

they will be under 2 10000K & 1 actnic 18000K.

I would keep it closer to the top until you get more light.

i have almost the same type of lighting, and i was told that i could keep stuff like mushroom corals, yellow pollups are good too, not to sure about many other then that, but they are low light, or so i was told, HTH
