Giving a small inexpensive alveopora a try in my LPS tank. Have several spots picked out with good par and flow.

1. 2-3“ from small scan lord and Sunny Ds on other side
2. 1” or so from zoa (generic zoa that I have frags of)
3. Near some micromussa t.

I know these babies will get big so figuring a good 2-3” away will allow good growth.

thanks for your input

Not aggressive, but the tentacles can extend a lot, maybe 5 inches in each direction if happy.
