So these are my first 4 corals you can hate them and tell me I'm going to kill them all but it's what I bought and that does me no good ok maybe it makes you feel good to know you warned me.... now that we are passed that part I'd love any help on actual placement of them.... so in the picture you see a "bridge" I'm fairly positive that goes away before I actually pick up these corals I loved it in its original spot but now that I rearranged I dont dig it so much thanks for all the help.... corals not in hand waiting for tank to cycle just picked out and paid for

The 2 Lps I would keep low in the rock work. The zoanthid mid way up and the galexea far far away from everything...sweepers can extend 12 inches and will do damage.

Probably not an issue with your lighting but I’m a huge proponent of light acclimating. That means starting them off at the lowest point in your tank (maybe even shaded if possible) and over the course of a few weeks moving them to their final spots. all those corals tend to be lower light corals, so it’s really not an issue to have them that low in your tank. Once you see them open up and look healthy, then you can move them to a higher spot in your tank if you really want to.

Good luck with your corals!! I love those first two :p
