Any reccomendations for suitable LPS Corals that will tolerate a reasonable high flow...I have a couple of Acans in this area but they don't seem to be doing too well in the high flow, so I'm gonna move them elsewhere...

I have MP40 on 100% lagoon mode in a braceless 28 x 28 x 18" deep tank.

Cheers
 
My chalices haven't minded higher flow, you could also do like meteor shower/cyphastrea corals, lepastrea etc. Not much of a lps guy but I've always had my acans in fairly high current and they've done fine as well how long have you had them there? Are they getting constantly blasted with current or is it a random high current in that area? If it's random on off current they should adapt from my experience maybe they are getting to much light in that area
 
Def chalice but the one that might surprise you is my torch coral and frogspawn. I have (3) MP40's on a 120g that ramp up to 90% and they are THRIVING!
