Default Raptors Peace Coral

What kind of lighting and should I use for Raptors Peace coral?

Mine is growing fine but I cant get the color I want out of it. The lavender centers are not as intense and the outsides are more on the greenish brown side.

Any tips?

Low light, they like the sandbed. Lets see a pic.

Feed it a varied meaty diet and it will grow like a weed.
