Advice on coral placement

[Hannahmunt]

I’m not sure what corals to place in the circled section (see image)

I am using ai hydra 32hd lighting.

I currently have a mix of soft and lps.

Hmm, what are you looking for? Do you have a list of the next corals you would want? Or thinking about?

No really, this is what I currently have:

• Kenya tree
• Pulsing Xenia
• Galaxea
• Hammerhead
• Candy cane
• Toad stool
• Green star polyps
• Rhodactis Mushroom
• Torch
  
  I’d just like to fill that section with something.

Depending on age of the tank . Stability , and parameters
perhaps it’s time to try a easier sps such as a plating montipora

Coral placement is mostly trial and error.

Place. Observe. Relocate if necessary.

It's about parameters, light and flow.

That spot is smack in the middle and higher up. This should be reserved for that special coral you want that loves light. A real show stopper. The torch is the only one that stands out to me.

I have a torch frag so maybe I’ll move him to the top

You need to rent a par meter to know for sure but that would be your highest intensity for sure. I would get another light or you wont be able to put coral on the sides

I’m sure having a 32hd over the tank and the place questioned is dead centre and the highest point . I don’t think lighting would be a issue .
but to know the actual value would be helpful
