I've gotten several new pieces lately and I'm trying to decide the best location for placement for lighting needs. Your input would be appreciated.

I have a 150 gal that has 1 Chinese Black box LED and 1 18" LED from SB Reef Lights. The tank is 30" tall.

I don't know PAR measurements yet, but with any luck, that will change this weekend.

I am curious about placement for the following items:

1) 6" Maxima Clam
2) Jack O Lattern Lepto
3) Lava Chalice
4) Photosynthetic plating Sponge

Any input is appreciated!

1. Clams: medium light, high lighting and bottom placement
2. Leptos : strong water flow and medium light
3. Chalice :medium flow and medium light
4. Plating sponge: medium water flow and middle placement
Nice tank !

YW. For future references you can go LiveAquaria and it will show you in the description of the specific coral
I guess I was looking for a little more direct or specific advice.

Something like, if that were my tank I would put a Maxima here and a Lepto there, etc
