They open wider in low flow area its normal; it doesn't necessarily mean it’s unhappy. And unless it looks off I don’t see a reason why you would need to move it in to a low light area.

As for the Scoly, he is down low (not in shadow) in what I would consider medium light and low/medium flow.

I guess I can't say a thing, as there is the "testing..." thread in Margaritaville
