Closed Brain
Do they need to be placed on the sandbed or is it alright to place on rock? Also do they move? I know the have tentacles that come out at night. I'm trying to find the right place for it. It seems to be losing some of it's color. I have fed it.

Re: Closed Brain
Their supposed to be on the sand,But I've seen em on the rocks too.
If you think it needs to be closer to the light,just try to place it so that theres no danger in it falling.

Re: Closed Brain
Does it look kinda like this?
 I call it a maze moon, others closed brain. Either way, this coral does not like direct light. I had it toward the top when I bought it, but it started bleaching out the green and brown. I dropped it down toward the bottom and it colored right up. I even have it partially shaded and it is doing even better -Doc Current Aquarium(s) Description: 210 gal "Shark Reef" With Angelfish and 90 gal reef tank Experience in Saltwater & Reef Aquarium Hobby: long enough to know I have a lot to learn

Re: Closed Brain
There are so many different types of brains, and they are all called so many things. Can you link to a pic of what kind yours is, Piggy?

Re: Closed Brain
I've seen them in every level of the tank.A lot of it depends on your light.
The safe bet is to place them on the sand and move them up as needed.

Re: Closed Brain
 Color is not very bright. Not sure if I need to move it up or down. Current Aquarium(s) Description: 120 with 30 sump Aquatinic Constellation T5 lighting Coralife Super Skimmer Koralia 2/3 Experience in Saltwater & Reef Aquarium Hobby: 2 years and counting Other Intrests: Pig collector, Gardening
