So my tank has been running now for about 9 months. Gone through all the horrible phases and finally just beat back an annoying GHA outbreak. Now that I'm done adding fish, I've begun adding more corals. I'm curious what you all think of my tank. Any suggestions on other corals that would be good to add and where abouts I should place them? I currently have 2 frogspawns/Octo (Greentip a Reddish/purple), a couple of small frag colonies of Zoas (Scrambled Eggs and an unknown) and green/blue what I think is a favia. Some Dragon Breath Algae which is doing great.

Lighting: AI Blade Grow 12"

Livestock: Black Wyoming White, Pink Streaked Wrasse, Tailspot Blenny.

Refugium running chaeto with a chaeto max light off cycle.

Some montipora spongodes would look good towards the top. It will "finger" out and kind of give it an acropora vibe without the hassle of acropora.
