Current stock:
Two Duncans
Blastos
Assorted shrooms
RFA
Alveopora
Assorted zoas
Two toadstools
Xenia
Acan

I’d like to add something a little more flowy for the movement in the tank. I tried a hammer but it died very fast (nutrients were at zero so maybe that was it (?) but I don’t wanna waste more money if it’s just gonna die)

Many of those will grow and be flowing. If you add anything else to the 5g, they will inhibit growth of the others and you will have issues. You may already have some that will out compete. FME

Yeah I know it sounds like a lot but it’s still pretty empty looking

It will look that way, but if you leave no room for them to grow, they won't. It is a hard thing to be patient. In a year, it will be full. :)
