Ricordea florida Mushroom Rock

I'm receiving two of these next week, and each has 4-5 pollyps. What is the recommended placement as far as lighting and flow? If I put them up against a larger rock will they spread to it over time?

Mine seem to prefer med flow and low-med light. t5's, VHO, PC will work very well. Basically enough flow so they move alittle. They'll let you know if there's to much flow by shrinking. Too much light and their colors wont be as brilliant.

Place them where YOU would like them to be, if they don't like it they'll stay a little closed. You might have to move them around till they're happy!
