I ended up lifting my Scolys off of the sand bed by making some DIY holders with pvc pipe and fittings. For the larger ones I used 1 1/2 pvc on a square base that I cut on a 22 degree angle to show the scoly. The smaller ones I used a pvc cap for 1 1/4 pipe and glued the scoly base to the top of the cap. So far they appear to be doing a good job and are very stable and will not fall over when encountered by my pin cushion urchin. I k own with time the white pvc will be covered in coralline algae.

That is a good idea! I might have to do that if I ever get some scolys for my tank
