I want a mixed reef. Here is a aqua scape picture. I want to fill the big rock column In the middle, any ideas what to add? I’m open to absolutely any suggestions ?
I’m think maybe acans ? Or rock flower anemones ?

What light do you run?
Assuming nothing super strong, Rock flowers would be good at the bottom, any lps middle (I like leptoseris) and maybe an encrusting Monti up top.

I have some Zoas, an Elegance, some Duncan’s, some acans, some toadstools, some orange mushrooms, various SPS - there’s so many attractive corals to consider! Every time I enter a shop or look online I see loads that I would buy! Fill yer boots!

For those tall columns, particularly if they are further back, I am a big fan of plating montipora. They’ll thrive under most light/flow conditions and wii grow ino a natural shape on the side of the column

So I actually got some favias and can enchinata will post photos later on:)
On a side note, my 100gallon has a leak. So I ordered a new one but it needs about 2 months to fully cycle again. Can I put my yellow tang in this tank until then or should I bring it to the store

Platys
Hammers
Duncans
Acans
Blastos
Elegance
Lobos
Torches
Alveopora
Gonios
GSP (if isolated)

My tank is only 3 months old so not got any SPS yet.

Cheers
