very nice !!

I believe there are many threads regarding corals replacements and lighting.

but the first thing i really think you need to do is get par readings. Once you know your lighting intensities.. place corals accordingly


good luck and happy reefing !

Thanks everybody! No I just didn’t want to glue them then realize down the line they’re in bad spots. I’ll just leave them they’re since they’ve been happy!

Some corals do fine on the sandbed, while others don't (can get irritated due to sand being kicked around). If your coral is doing fine and growing where they are, I wouldn't move them!
