Coral recommendations

[jdubDaReefGuy]

I have a vertical wall of rock on the side of the tank I would like to have something growing on. There is about 2” of clearance between rock and glass. It gets some light but not a ton. I was thinking maybe rock flower anemones but would like to know some other options

Rock flowers may not grow there. You want on sand or wall?

For wall I suggest encrusting sps.

I agree with the above that encrusting sps would be a nice fit.

Sand would be fine if it grew tall. I’ve thought about some type of encrusting sps or something like a chalice but again the light isn’t very high in that area. What would be the issue with rock flowers?

Any recommendations for low light/ high flow?

I was thinking zoa’s would probably be the best option, I just worry with how the do with flow. That spot has pretty high flow

Rfa won't necessarily climb rock and dont get tall.

I find the high flow makes mine grow faster
