    Hey guys I bought one last night because of its unique color... it's a strong white and neon pink. Of course I never thought that the special price was because its most likely bleaching.... i posted pics on another post. What can you guys advise some say low lighting some say moderate some say place it on the gravel or sand bed some say half way down. The bottom has what appears to be a twig or L shaped peice which fits perfect in any hole of my live rock and it sits nice. But advice please! where should it be? I have LED's and they are pretty intense I want to make sure this bad boy recovers if it truly is bleaching and sick... i'll repost a pic in a second!

    I would start with it on the bottom under a ledge until it starts coloring up, then move it to light but keep it on the sand.
