Hi all, just set up a new 10 gallon AIO tank.

Below is the aquascape, and another picture with my proposed Coral selections and placement.

I'm looking for feedback on aesthetic and growth patterns. Also looking for suggestions on the area marked with a question mark.

Any suggestions for specific types or colors of Corals, or suggestions for alternatives would be awesome!

Using a Kessil a160we, and the tank is a IM nuvo 10.

-On the far right side (glass) I'm thinking GSP wall - marked as a green rectangle
-Underneath that in the sand, putting multiple frogspawns, hammers or torch corals to fill in the space.

-On the front right "leg" in red circle, a zoa garden going up the Rock.
-The pink circle on the ledge, I'm wanting a clam. Any suggestions for species?
-Yellow circle in the front on the sand, I'm thinking a bubble Coral or lobo. Hoping to find a good deal on something for this space -all the lobos I've found are in the hundreds of dollars

-Grey area, acans to fill in the Rock work

-Left middle (red) a Monty cap
-Above that I'm not sure what would work out and look good there?
-Sps and birdsnest type Coral to fill in the upper 1/3 of the back side of the tank

Sorry for the text wall!

I wouldn't do any clam in a 10 gallon tank, other than that it looks like a good plan. The torch should help to keep the gsp from going out of control on the bottom, just make sure to keep it from spreading too far in any other direction. Also, do you have an ato? It's going to be nearly impossible to keep salinity stable without one in a 10 gallon

Do you have a picture of the final result?
