Hello fellow reefers! I have just very excitedly (RIP my wallet) made an online order for some corals that were on sale. I was wondering if I could get some assistance with placement. I bought a Fascination Favia, Bejeweled favia, yellow sub favia (excitement!!) and a meteor show cyphastrea. I realise all the favias like moderately low flow and light but was wondering if i can place some a bit higher on my rocks to conserve space on the sand bed. My main concern is that there are different types of favias and I already have two favias on rocks in the sand bed and don’t want them to fight. Also, if I put the cyphastrea next to a red gorgonian would this be ok? I have heard this particular cyphastrea can be a bit aggressive but wondering if that was because of its growth rate? Or, on the other hand, if the gorgonian would hurt the cyphastrea. I have included a picture of my tank if this helps at all. Any suggestions are welcome, including moving some rocks around. Thanks in advance for the help!
