I just can't seem to find the right place for this mille. I picked this one up from Advanced when we had the meeting at Mike's place. Its never had decent PE, and the color is drab. I had it originally on the sand, medium-high flow. It started to lighten up in spots so i moved it to a more shaded area, high flow. Since in that spot, it started to have good PE, but started to brown out. So yesterday i moved it halfway up the rockwork, still high flow. Today is day 3 and i've seen absolutely no PE, day or night. Any suggestions?

Here it is when i got it:

Thats what my pink milli looks like. I can't get it to color up either, so when you find out what works share the info.

My pink milli is high up in my tank right under a 250W DE Phoenix. One of my best growers and good PE. It browned out when I first got it but colored up over a couple of weeks.

I think your coral might be a little pissed because it is getting moved around so much too.

Mine has been in the same spot for over 3 months, 6-7 inches below the water level and almost directly under a 400w radium.

I have a white tip with bright pink body milli that is about 5 or 6 inches under dual 250w 14k and center between the lights and it is super pink...
