Hi all!

I got this amazing piece of rock, its quite flat and upfront of the tank. As empty as it is its quite a waste. What would be nice to get on here? I try to keep my tank mainly based on mushrooms and euphyllia but I am in for other corals :)

Let me know!

Rock flower anemones would look great there.

I have not looked into them for this rock yet!! I was looking at encrusted montipora or chalice! But I do love anenomes. Got alot of disc anenomes so that would fit :)

I think you might’ve sold me.. man that would look amazing and fit in with what I kinda had in mind! I like the encrusted montis but yea not alot of movement? And with the zoas I like them but everybody has them haha

Like all nems, they may move from the spot you like.

Yea I do see that indeed, and I kinda want something to stick on that rock. And since its quite “flat” and they want their foot stuck in something it might be a little hard to keep them there. I do really like them, but maybe I need to get some with not a place in mind :) or atleast that I wouldn’t mind them moving. Maybe a chalice or encrusted monti would be better for this spot

It’s a showpiece spot IMM, right out in front.
Your encrusting idea is a good one.

You can always start in other spots waiting for the “right piece” to come. It’s it’s not going to move, be picky in your choices.

Some different colors acanthastrea would look great as well

Yea you are totally right I will not rush this, as you said it is a showpiece spot. If I would put something up there it has to be special. I do want it to be low growing because I want the torches to be the head display. And I do got some green up there and rhodactis indonesis neon green. And 2 green torches. So I am thinking a nice encrusted monti piece. Which has like reds and blues in it :) It had the correct moderate flow up there and some good light from my Kessil.

They look even better when they open up for feeding
