placement

As Title says I’m struggling to get enough flow towards the back corners of my tank due to it having a big center overflow box. I turned my pumps up to get more flow but now it’s blasting my corals. I’m not sure what pumps should I get and where should I place them? Don’t have anymore...

Hi All! I’m fairly new to the reef/fish hobby thanks to fostering my daughter’s two clown fish. I have a 32.5G Fluval Flex saltwater tank and have just started adding corals. The Hammer Coral was placed in one of the pre-drilled holes on my live rock, but I’m afraid it might be the wrong spot...

I recently got this favia and put it on the rock as a place holder, but it looks pretty unnatural. Will it grow around the rock over time or still look out of place? I don't want to put it on the sandbed because I'm scared my conch will destroy it. Thanks

At the moment, I have a FijiCube 32 AIO aquarium with mechanical/media filters in both chambers "A" and "B". There will be 1 chamber for the media basket, the other for chaetos. So, to which chamber, "A" or "B", the chaetos should be placed? And the reasons? Thank you for the replies!

Hi everyone, After 12 years of being absent from the hobby, I want back in :beaming-face-with-smiling-eyes: We've been trying to figure out where the best spot would be without making the space look crammed. The best we could come up with was a 6ft x 24" x 24" as shown in the image and move...

Coral Id was gifted this frag and trying to figure out best location for it does anyone know what type of coral and the name of it ? Thanks

Just curious. I've always kept mine on the bottom of the tank but starting to second guess this.

Have a couple ricordea that were near each other at the base of a rock. I had hope of them growing/splitting up the rock but I’m thinking I may need to move my orange guy. The green ricordea lifted itself up a little last night and moved closer to the orange one. Before I was having trouble...

Hey all. I have two MP40s in my Red Sea Reefer 250, have had them both on the sides of the tank and on the back glass and am wondering what other peoples opinions are on placement in this dimension tank. I mainly moved them because i felt like I was getting serious dead spots behind my aquascape...

Hi all, I am getting ready to place an elegance coral in my tank and wondering about how to place it on my sand bed. Should I place the elegance on the sand bed or should I plan to bury the skeleton into the sand bed to prop it upwards? My sand bed is on the shallower side (1”) for where I’d...

I'm fairly certain it is, I purchased it months ago and now I can't find my paperwork. With all the changes lately... I'm really having a hard time with these acans... but I am starting to get better! Lol ;P

So had a 15g jbj cubey for almost 4 months. Coral added after the first week Then second-week fish All levels were good Posting full tank shot. want to see if I'm in the right direction for placement and health A few questions are... Are my zoas too close together? 2 corals don't seem to look...

I am building my first tank right now, It is a small tank, only 29 gallons (30"-12"-18" in) I have it sitting on a 58.8lb wooden cabinet. My math says the entire thing will weigh a little over 388lbs. The problem is that I live on the third floor of an apartment complex. The tank will be in the...

Hello fellow saltines, I just got some new corals and when I was dipping a brittle star came off. I'm excited because I normally just get bristleworms. :-) Where do I put him in my tank? Do I put him on the sand bed or a rock. I also noticed half a brittle star. Not sure if these legs came off...

Would anyone have a decent idea on varieties of coral that can grow upside down, or glued to the underside of an aquascape? My first thought was NPS (Non Photosynthetic) Corals, because they don't need light and I could just spot feed. But I'm a big fan of easy corals so I don't know if NPS is...

So ummmm….. should I move it or…? Lights are currently off in my tank that’s why it’s closed up

What type of coral would be happiest/safest going on the arch of the rock? Currently none of my coral are glued down because I wanted to make sure that they will thrive in their location before it becomes their permanent home. There are plenty of spaces on the main sections of the rock...

So I have my hammers and candy cane that I feel aren’t in the best spots based on the light and flow in those areas. I wondered where the best placement would be. I attached some pictures of my aquarium and scape.

I just installed 2 eflux current 1050 gph powerheads. Currently have them set to gyre mode at 70% My hammer retracted completely after turning the powerheads on so worried it might be getting too much flow. Nothing else seems affected

Hi just ordered this coral which arrives in 2 days. Can’t find a massive amount of information on them but wanting to know if I should give a lot of space around it…… Got a couple of placement options, one’s 8 inches from my euphillia and others at other side of tank bout 10inches from...

Hi I’m wanting suggestions for Lsp corals for top 3rd / left side of my tank….. Currently have 2 hammers on right side of picture…. Got a blue/green toxic hammer comming tomorrow for top part between the 2 existing hammers on the peak and placing a micromussa lord at the bottom right on the...

Hi, I'm wondering if anyone has any input as to my current coral stocking plan, I'm mostly gonna be sticking with LPS and softies and later down the line I'll probably add an "easy SPS" like pink cauliflower pocillopora or montipora Capricornus. I'm slightly worried that the euphylias on the...

I just got a couple of new frags today but I’m not sure where I should place the robokaki chalice. Please help!

Can The 24k Gold Torch be placed with other Torches?

Hey everyone, I was hoping to get some guidance on coral placement for my tank. Im open to suggestions so please let me know what you think would work well and add to the display. The top layers i eventually want to have acros. The small rock in centre has some zoa frags to cover the rock. I...
