Coral Placement Plan Help

[countryboyreese]

Hey yall! New to the forum and reefing hobby and need a little help and input. I'm trying to plan my coral placement in my fluval evo 13.5 and just trying to get some input from others about what they would place and where in my current setup. I am going to wait a couple months until coral goes in as the tank is still pretty new. It will be a mostly lps and softie tank and I eventually plan on getting an AI prime for lighting as well. So far my coral wants for this tank are hammer, torch, frogspawn, RFA, ricordea mushroom, zoas, acan, blastos, maybe a Duncan and a gorgonian or 2. I'm seriously struggling with figuring out placement for the corals. I was thinking torches on the top part of the largest rock structure with hammers and frogspawn below? Then mushrooms/blastos around the base. And use the two rock islands in the front for zoas/acans etc. I was also considering putting the hammers on the rock island on the left and zoas on the other island. Tough decisions haha. I'll attach a few pics of the tank and would love to hear suggestions about how you would place corals in my setup. Thanks for your input!

I think having the euphyllia on the higher parts of the rock will be fine. Then you can place the rest where you want. Keep in mind, euphyllia can sometimes send out tentacles pretty far to "defend" themselves and sting whatever they touch.

Plan more carefully the torch is not a friendly critter maybe you can put it on the sand away from the rest . As I see it you may be able to squeeze 6 in the tank at the most
