I’m looking for ideas on corals being grown on the backwall of my aquarium. I’ve seen GSP but I’ve also heard you can have other coral growing there. What else can be grown on the back wall? Pictures would be a bonus
 
I'm growing a Styloconiella, sorry no pictures of it, but it's an Electric Daisy.

Several other reefers have Cyphastreas growing, some have Acroporas, I've done Digitatas in the past.
 
With magnetic frag islands any coral can be grown on the back walls. If you are looking for something that will do its thing and encrust on its own: GSP, Clove Polyp, and pretty much any SPS.

My favorite back wall coral, green slimer.
Pic 1 to pic 2 7 months. Another 6 months to today.

I gave cyphastrea, a neon green Kenya tree and gsp growing directly on my glass. I also have a Hollywood stunner, a devils finger leather, a hammer, a trumpet and some pink monster Zoa growing on plastic encapsulated magnets on the glass.

I have a few Monti on my back wall.

Rainbow Monti and Tequila Sunrise, both are growing well.
