Hi all,
We have this empty rock in the bottom left of our tank. We tried to get some gsp going and the coral beauty decided it liked to nip which led to me removing the gsp. Ive since improved my feeding and stopped the coral beauty from nipping from the time being. We are considering maybe a duncan and possibly even xenia but any suggestions would be much appreciated

Either of those would be nice. Maybe either a turbinara or zoas too.
 
What about a nice colony of frogspawn?
We had a frogspawn but lost it within two days. It wasnt open at the lfs which should have been a tell tale sign. Flesh literally melted off. It was the first coral from the shop so might go back to a more reputable place
 
At least the sand bed is sparkly clean...
🤮

Yes super clean! Before I had to start the QT even with 14 fish it was crazy clean. They really do eat up everything not a single turd hits the sand bed haha!
