Orange Digi Placement

[Sunny]

I thought that orange digi is one of the easier SPS to keep. Well I have acros, ORA , monti and all are doing well.

I recently got an orange digi and put it, I would say in the middle of my tank. It has decent flow.

This guy is the only one that seems to be bleaching .. One branch has turned whitish blue.

The tank is 150 Gallon, 30 inch deep. Lights are T5.

Is it bleaching cause it is set too low? I thought it should not be placed up top.

Any ideas what is going on?

Thanks

No one has an orange digi?

if it wasnt getting enough light i would say it would turn brown not white. Move it lower and make sure you give it proper flow so it has some polpy extenstion.

We had our digi in the middle of our 20g tank under t5s and it was fine. Just a quick note give it a lot of space, that piece stung some corals around it and it grows pretty fast.
