I think a lot of the Blasto family, chalices, favia and others along those lines are high light corals.
I always thought blasto, chalices, and favia are NOT high light corals. That's why most people have them in the lower part of the tank or on the sandbed...

Are there any LPS that are take allot of light?
Most LPS are going to want something more in the medium to low light range. However, If you are wanting to find smething to put on the top part of your rocks, you can always slowly acclimate your desired lps to higher light. Start the frag in the middle of the tank and slowly move it up an inch or two every week until you get to where you are happy with it.

There are also some beginner friendly sps that you could try out too that would do well in higher spots in your tank. (Stylophora, Pocillopora, Monti Digitata, Monti Setosa, Monti Cap, Birdsnest)

We are going to have lots of AMAZING rock flowers, Mini Bali Red Carpet Nems, Green Bubble Tips and some Rainbow Bubble Tips as well!

Is the shipping refunded in the case something happens and can't participate in the live sale? And also the date is the day we received the box at our address or the say you ship? (Just to confirm)

Thank you, great information. I’ll slowly move a few pieces higher and see how they do. I’m not sure I am ready for SPS yet.

LRO.....What is the process for locals who will be picking up? I see the Florida shipping module but is there a local pick up module? Or just a selection during check out that allows for local pick up? Thanks!

The combined cost of all my lights is less than a PAR meter, so no lol I have a local reefer that would let me borrow one, but if my corals are happy I don't see a need to tinker
