Howdy y'all, I picked up a kung pao montipora (i believe montipora palawanensis?) frag and 2 heads of a candy cane coral from the LFS today. Just wondering how you guys would place them 'smartly'. At the same time I'm trying to figure out what section to reserve for my hammers (you can see them along the sand bed for now). At the peaks I currently have a monti digitata, spongeodes, and seriatopora dendritica. With the limited sand bed area however, I'm unsure where to place some of these other corals. Keeping in mind the long term compatibility and mitigating future coral warfare, yk?

Thanks in advance!

Bump! Dipped and placed them on clean frag plugs, plopped the candy cane onto the sand bed for now and the kung pao monti into a hole on the rock.
