OK, I guess I will leave it where it is now, lower in the tank with medium flow.
The colors may react better if the coral is under more intense lighting. I wouldn't call them a "strong light" needing coral, but medium to high light should be good and will result in the best colors most of the time. In a T5 lit tank, probably the higher the better. don't be surprised if it loses color intensity or shift brown for a little while.

I'm trying to see if she'll get me another frag of that, I love it. Is it pretty peaceful??
I would call them a moderately aggressive coral. Definitely not as aggressive as a hydnophora or some LPS species. A buffer area of a few inches around it will keep things happy and allow for growth.
Keep your eyes out for green varieties also. They are just as intense in color.
